Hi ladies and Ron and Mike.
Had emotional day yesterday--argument with Mom. Anytime I'm stressed I want to eat. Trying to change my mindset and go for a walk or exercise. The other day I was so p-o'ed at her I did the boxing on Wii Sports Active and it helped a lot. Didn't help this morning that I was stressed and at the grocery store--chocolate bars.
Thanks for the support

uh, seems like I am not the only one having a tough week. stay strong, you fellow fighters!
I didn't go to my Drums Alive course yesterday because I spent 10.5h in the office and then went on to prepare today's workshop at home up until 1:15 am. and then got up at 6am today and managed to host the workshop quite well, I think. And now all I can think of is lie on the sofa for a movie, have a nice hot shower and fall asleep in my bed. And it is only past 6 pm here.
So, no sports today again.
And my food was all bread and bread rolls and pastry. and the kitchen is a bit of a mess anyway

Hey, folks. So, my eating hasn't been great yesterday or today. Got on the scale this morning - wasn't a number I wanted to see, but I'm blaming it on TOTM and mini-surgery. Certainly not all the food I've been eating!
Blargh, not having an awesome week in general...but I didn't want to disappear all together.
