 I thought I would start a daily post on the days I am able to post.

Today, my challenges were snacking to much. I need to plan my menu better for tomorrow. I forget that fruit really fills me up as a snack with a little protein with it. 

That will be my focus for tomorrow.

As we all know we did not have surgery on our heads.....I am an emotional eater. Recently I have had some sibling strife leading to overeating. Thank god for my own Dr. Phil. 

I encourage everyone to use whatever support you need to help you with any emotional eating you do. I can only speak from experience it is a challenge. 

I hope everyone had a good day today. 

Her is to a tomorrow of better choices.

hope you had a better day the next day. 

I too am an emotional eater.  I eat when I am sad, happy, stressed or just plan bored.  I find myself standing at the refrigerator door at night.  I have started making myself do the WII Fit whenever I find myself there and it seems to help take my mind off it.  Not to mention it gives me more exercise.

You are right if we could just have surgery on our heads this would be easy.

I am also an emotional eater.  I get stressed, ticked off, depressed, I EAT.  This is probably the thing I fear most about the "after" life.  I can only hope I can find strength and support from some where too.  I am at least 3 months out before surgery.

I feel your sentiments.
