Follow-up: I did it, I did it!!!

As I wrote yesterday, I had a bad day a couple of days ago. Yesterday, I felt still fairly lousy physically because I didn't get much sleep and still bruised emotionally from the occurrence. I knew it was a flashing yellow caution light as to my desire to emotionally eat.

The follow up is that I did it! I stayed on track and made great food choices. So now this morning, I feel so, so much better. Time is a great healer and also the fact that yesterday was a success for me in not giving in to emotional eating. By making healthy choices, I honored myself and stayed in control rather than turn over the control to cookies.

The hurt hasn't gone away completely but the overriding factor is that I stayed in control over a situation that was very rough. I didn't give in to the temporary quick fix of feeding my emotions but looked long-term to the great way I'll feel when I don't.

I do feel GREAT!

Thanks for your support and good thoughts.
