Yesterday was a tough day. The family drama continued all day, trickling in via text messages. I was feeling sick to my stomach for most of it, with a lot of anxiety as I keep checking my phone to see what was happening next.
However, I continued to not be tempted by food. I didn't even THINK about eating food for comfort. Maybe that was partially because I was so physically and mentally drained, and yet still had to keep two young people alive. I'm not sure. But before I knew it, it was dinner time and I had only eaten 3 meal replacements. So, I think the anxiety was a big factor, plus being super-busy, but I'm still claiming it a huge personal victory that not only did I avoid turning to food, I didn't even THINK about food.
I'm feeling a bit better today, but there is still a bit pit in my stomach. The drama died down, but I still feel like a lot of it is unresolved, and what HAS been resolved was at my expense with little/no upside. I feel like a lot was taken out of me, but not my health goals. And that is important.
I wanted to write about New Year's Eve, but I'm just too zonked tonight. I will try to capture that soon, I promise!
