Back In The Saddle

Due to being called to Minneapolis this weekend for a family situation I have not posted and I apologize to my daily readers. Now I'm back and I don't think there should be anymore reasons to miss my daily postings.

While I was gone this weekend, I did not travel with my protein shake mix due to the quickness of having to leave town. So I ate regular Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I've not weighed myself yet...so I'm hoping I didn't gain any weight through the weekend. I did eat light and I only ate two meals each day...not because I choose not to eat but because I wasn't all that hungry.

And saying that I was hungry, I didn't think about eating. In fact I realized over the weekend that I don't think about food all that much. I'm aware I need to eat something and I'm aware that I need to take my vitamins. But I'm also aware that the situations I used to turn to food to deal with I'm now turning to pondering it more in my mind, reading books or listening to music. I also realized that I used to turn to food a lot in the past. The whole new lifestyle things is really a learning to think differently, act differently and to be different.

I really do think a lot of weigh gain is more of a mental thing than a physical thing. I just need to control how I deal with different issues.
