It is a challenging time for sure. I need to get some healthy things to grab....good suggestion.
You're so right about keeping our heads in the game. My head isn't there right now.
I'm grateful for your support, along with my other BOTT friends too.

Kids do cause heartache, grief and bad eating. Hugs and prayers that you can get through this maintaining your weight and health. Whatever the problem, I pray that your son gets through this, too.
HUGS.. I don't have children, but I do have a lot of stress in my life..
I try to find things that I can do when I start slipping and start eating things that are not good for me.
One thing for me that works - is to remove the the "bad food" from my home. If it is not here - I can't eat it..(or drink it - i.e. wine)
Stock my fridge and freezer with variety of good - mostly home made foods (or some semi homemade - premade - but all whole foods)
make legal desserts - snacks so when the "craving" hits - I have something legal I can snack on... (SF Jello, NSA nuts, some frozen berries , make protein cookies and muffins...)
I have to take into account that dealing with stress by eating - is going to make my issue worse - I would add getting fat - na stomach discomfort to already existing stress.. making myself sick because of someone's else action...
today ... I plan to take a bath... instead of eating a dessert.. and I will bake some NSA cookies... (1 cup almond butter, 3 eggs, 1/4 cup almond milk, 1/2 cup shredded coconut, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tbs stevia, pinch of salt) mix it all up - bake as a cookies or small muffins.. (I use muffin top cookie sheet pans). I make 2 dozens - and that lasts me 1-2 weeks... (adding some protein powder to it - makes them more like mela - instead of a snack.) adding some frozen or fresh berries to the mix - makes them decadent (for me ) desert..

I hear you! We love them but they drive us nuts! Hang in there we are here for you. Do you have something healthy and handy and ready you can grab when you gotta grab something? As you know reading and posting here really does help keep our head in the game. Good luck, we are here for you!
Cathy,
Sorry you're going through such a tough time. I hope things get better for you and your family. My thoughts are with you.
We have a son that has caused us so much grief and heartache.
We found out on Saturday some of the awful things he has been doing. We had an awful year with him a couple of years ago. Lately, he has been doing better - or so we thought. What he has been better at is more sneaky.
I've been emotionally eating over this since Saturday. I needed to say that to all of you and come clean about it. The problem is that I am not inclined to not emotionally eat about this. I'm hoping by posting this here with all of you that it will help me to get back on track and not emotionally eat about this.
Thank you for reading.

So that is it! I need to get my juicer back.......I have been on a slight gain; have gained about 15 from my lowest weight. Since retiring I have been around the house more than I should, but have been eating high proteins, etc. mostly. Obviously, more than required, so am not being strict enough and grazing. Not enough exercise either, other than chasing grandchildren around and one or two walks per week. I never thought of mixing my protein powder with my juice, so will try that and skip the stuff I have been eating for breakkie, such as one slice bacon, 1 egg and some cheese.......... Glad I came back on line and saw you all!
