What a day!
How do you handle those days? For me pre-op (okay, sometimes post-op too), I would eat. You know, food that helps you curb the emotions, takes the edge off and just downright comforts you.
Well, not me, not today. I saw a quote somewhere that says something along the lines of you are more powerful than any situation that can happen to you. When I step back, how much sense does it make to eat over emotions or a situation? It just makes things worse.
I know that I'll close the day staying on track!!

When I have one of those days I have to remember to BREATHE!!! Its so easy to hold your breath and not release the tension of the day...Once i can retreat I find a favorite bath salt or bubblyboo and have a long soak with whatever book I am reading at the time. That is my new luxury...reading and a soak. I have to really resist the longing to dive into something chocolate and sweet when im feeling low, more-so now than i did pre op to be honest....I think I have more of an eating issue than i did before. Maybe its just because I am much more accutely aware of my behaviors now...who knows. With my VSG I feel so much more in control of my whole life that it seems my off kilter days seem farther and fewer inbetween : ))
