I went back and re-read an entry I wrote in May- "I won today"- in which I actually beat stress/emotional eating that day! I can honestly say the event of that day turned my life and often my smile upside down! But I still manage everyday to fight the urge of emotional eating. This week in the meeting room I shared an acronym for stress: strength to resist eating stupid stuff! Strength is not an easy thing to gain. It may take months and years and lots of falling down and getting back up but we can do it. A ww tool for living is reframing; instead of the negative lets find a positive solution. Instead of eating I will ________or I can________. If you have struggled with this issue and have a fill in the blank answer please share.
Hope to see you back in the meeting room next week!
