I have made comments before about emotional eating. You all know that I tend to eat my turmoil. I have even made a comment or two regarding food addiction.
I am rethinking my former position. Friday evening, The Boy had a spot of trouble. He called home for help. I calmed him down and then sent is father after him (The Boy had my car, so I was stuck).
Once I got off the phone with him, I headed straight for the kitchen, without even realizing what exactly I was doing. Not cool.
Saturday, I had to go into work for a bit and something awful happened while I was there. I didn't even wait until I got home. I stopped at a fast food restaurant on the way home! Even less cool.
I am very frustrated and angry with myself. (Yes, that makes me want to head for the kitchen as well!) I need to stop this!
I am at a loss as to where my self control was. I have always been a bit lax, but lately, I seem to be helpless when it comes to this topic. I loathe myself after words, and create a terrible downward spiral for myself.
I am better than this. I know I am. I just need to figure out how to put a leash on myself.
Perhaps I could wrap the refrigerator with that wire used in electrical fencing. Then I would get a giant zap every time I went for the fridge!
Hmmmm. . . that might just work . .
take the time that it takes to regroup and regroup. and do not ignore that >>>take the time it takes<<<< part, but not MORE time than it takes. Just thought of something I received last week that I need to copy & past on your wall for you. xoxoxoxoxo ~a
