I started the week trying to have a refreshed focus but failed very quickly and miserably 2 days in a row. Monday and Tuesday at work were very stressful and I fell into comfort eating. Not that I ate too much but I ate things I am trying to ward off.....sugar.

At the hospital there is always candy sitting around the nurses station and my office. I did grab a few pieces. Even for lunch on Monday I had brought my lunch but by the time I went to the cafeteria I was wanting something comforting not my light soup and cottage cheese. I ended up buying loaded baked potato soup and then ate my cottage cheese and yogurt. I know I didn't eat badly but I did not follow my plan and I caved to emotional eating, even if it wasn't a bowl the size of a kiddie pool.
Anyway, that is how my week has been going. I will continue to try to break this behavior.

No exercise so far this week either. Monday night my L knee was swollen and very tender. This is an injury about 4 years old now but I guess I did something to aggravate it. I have not been able to climb stairs or bear all my weight on it. It is feeling better today though.

Until next time...............
