Got home from work last night and was not quite as tired as the day before. But I could feel another headache coming on so I sat down for awhile. My husband is traveling for work so I am home alone. I thought I would get so much done with him being gone but I am just not motivated. Actually, I have been in some kind of funk since the beginning of the year.
I had a 6 inch tuna sub and bag a chips yesterday for lunch. So when I got home from work yesterday I wasn't hungry. Then when I did fix myself supper I had small portions. But I always like something sweet. Had a couple rice crispy bars.
I didn't sleep well last night, I had an unpleasant encounter with a pervert on the subway yesterday and it was quite upsetting. No incidents on the ride home or the ride in today. I hope I can keep my eyes open all day at work. I already feel like I could nap.
Last night I got a little bit of stitching done on my daffodils. It is a small project but I am a slow stitcher. I am out of floss on two colors for this project so I had to BUY some. Kept it to just what I need.
Have not failed on my avoiding French fries. We had bagels and cream cheese at work and I was good there too. I think it is the sweets and potato chips that get me.
Today's scripture is Rev 4:11 - God created all things so he is worthy of our praise.
Today's OA For Today asks if I am to caught up in achievements and acquisitions that have nothing to do with my spiritual wellbeing. I believe that is true. For today: I need no formal knowledge to pray and meditate, just a conscious effort to open myself to whatever comes.
I will pray for strength to not over eat today.
I wish you the best in your struggles but most importantly, I wish that you can come up with a plan to handle the emotional eating...I used exercise, a punching bag, to be precise. Also, what helped me with the junk food was reading about the all the poisonous chemicals that go into the production of snack foods and most processed foods. I ate mostly fruits and veggies, no white food and lots of fish and chicken.
