What a freaking hard day... things have taken a turn for the worse with my boy again, so I was extremely emotional with a double dose of my little stress pills. Again, I wanted to throw myself at food and eat my emotions. I nearly did, I really came so close. Somehow I didn't. I don't know how I survived the day without a binge. I have a huge slab of my favourite Marvelous Creations chocolate in the house, plus two slabs milk chocolate for hubby's birthday plus a bulk bag of the kids' chips, a tub ice-cream in the freezer - so there was temptations galore. I know when I'm fragile I can go on a feeding frenzy and eat everything in sight - I know that I am an emotional eater to the extreme, I recognized my problem and I am fighting it. Today I am glad that I stayed strong. I'm still sad, but I am happy that I'm continuing to build myself up, not break myself down any further.
Menu for the day was: An egg, ham, tomato and a banana for breakfast, soup for lunch, Paleo beef stroganoff and veggies for dinner. Snacks included sunflower seeds I roasted with a few nuts and raisins and spiced with chili and paprika. I hope I did not munch on this too much... it's a bit addictive! A clean eating day.
I also did a 5 km run to start out my day.
