Yesterday was a BAD day, stress wise. Work is really getting to me this week and yesterday was my breaking point. I had a panic attack and all I wanted to do was LEAVE. I didn't, but somehow I finally calmed down.
When I get upset or stressed, I want to EAT- and not healthy options either....I wanted chocolate and sodas and anything else that may comfort me. Man, what a day. I did refrain though. It was hard, but I know it wasn't worth it. I was too busy at work either to really eat like that, so that helped.
Do you have any suggestions on how to handle stress? I have always been a stress eater and it's creeping up on me again.
I really hope today goes better than yesterday. I mean, it's FRIDAY- it's got to be better, right????
GREAT job at not caving in to BAD food- your right its not worth it. Hope today is better and hope friday flys by :)
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how you feel! I used to work at a daycare and would just CRAVE chocolate chip cookies and chocolate after work. It was bad. What works for me is finding a low calorie crunchy snack that I can attack when I'm stressed. Low fat kettle corn works for me, so maybe you can find a healthier substitute to chocolate and sodas. You definitely have great willpower to not give in!
