Confession

As Darla said in her other blog, confession is good for the soul.

I gave in to emotional eating today.

There. It's out there.

My boss/partner upset me this morning and it bothered me. So I reached for a snack. Emotional eating. On the plus side, it was a bag of Cheerios Snack Mix so it really wasn't all that unhealthy in and of itself, but still...

Normally I would take a walk around the block or do something like that to "shake it off" but I was fairly confined to my desk today working on some deadlines so it was easier to just open the drawer and grab a handful of snack mix.

Lesson One: don't keep the snack mix in the desk drawer.

Lesson Two: do what you know is right and don't look to food to solve the problem.

Lesson Three: shake it off and don't repeat the process tomorrow.

There. Feel better already.
