Morning
Today begins the first day of a 5 day party for me. My favorite of the year. Heading to the Blue Jays game with a busload of friends then home for a kick off party of the golf tournament.
My eats are going to be all over the place and not the best. I have the menu for the food post golf for each day. I eat properly most of the time and will do so when I can the next few days. Otherwise I will have what everyone else is having but in much less quantities. I will likely gain 5 pounds worth of salt alone but will lose it quickly next week by getting right back on the horse

Hi there everyone. Really frustrated - my 24 plus solid hours of studying over the long weekend were all for nothing, there was no improvement in my test score. So very angry I could just punch something, so sad that I keep failing. I was 99.9% sure I had it, I gave it my all. Failing at something makes me want to throw in the towel in other areas like eating, it sucks so much.

Thanks birdiegirl, I know you are right logically but I find it hard to convince my emotions to cooperate, if you know what I mean. I am seeing my therapist tomorrow to discuss my feelings and ways to cope. I stayed on track today despite my feelings, and yes it does help that I was able to be good to myself in that way, although I don't feel like I deserve it, I feel horrible. I will try to think in grey, I usually am able to, just sometimes I knocked off balance you know.
Zizzler that does suck. Don't console yourself with food. You're angry, so maybe go to the gym and do some kickboxing to release some of that anger.
