Post meltdown

OK - so today wasn't so great. Finding out the pants you planned to wear are too tight AFTER waking up 1/2 hour late on the day you need to be in the office early sets up just the right environment for a meltdown.

I think I know what's going on. There's some private stress in my life right now that I can't work through with my usual methods: writing here or on MFD. But to protect the innocent, I can't do that. And for the past month, I've been slip sliding away into old Maura coping: with food.

And today, that's all I wanted. Food. Unhealthy. Lots of of it. Fortunately for me I didn't have lots of it.

And now I'm feeling sleepy but with a bit of optimism and resolve. My wearing a size 10 pants is not the end of the world. I'm not going to wake up tomorrow and weigh 211 lbs.

  1. I have a hard time not letting "tight pants" get me down, and have a bad day too. Sometimes that makes me want to eat more, rather than less!
