I've continued on the right path and have stopped filling the void with food. Had another session this week with my counselor. Aside from our discussions, she said it's a good idea to continue with my food journal, to keep walking every morning and to do a relaxing activity in the evening like yoga or T'ai Chi or meditation. My man joined me for a few sessions and it's also helping him and helping us heal together.
We're also looking to get away somewhere next month if we can find some money. (We do have savings, but they are earmarked for other projects. This never-ending winter has taken a big toll. We're just tired of the grey and cold. Even if it's for a nice little weekend. In the meantime, we did go for a swim and relaxing sauna which lifted our spirits.
Physically I have more energy and being back at work has helped me get back into a good structured routine, which is what I need right now. Sleep is difficult but it's getting better daily. Mentally, I'm a work in progress.
Weigh in: 193lbs. I know it was much higher and I expected it to be up with everything and all the crap eating last week. It'll be down next week.

There are some super cheap last minute deals out of Toronto and Montreal. Cuba, all-inclusive, with airfare, for like $700. Might be worth it! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip! We're debating your suggestion or playing "Russian Roulette" and getting a flight to somewhere warm at the very last minute :)
