Before After

Stress and travel

Neither are helpful for weight loss.  I have way more stress than I care for.  And I'll be taking 2 1 week long trips in less than a month.  With a toddler and a one month old.  Did I mention stress?

Oh, and the purpose for the trips... yeah, more stress...  my hubby is moving away.  He needs to be on site for his new job.  We can't wait for the house to sell so that we can all move together.  Time is up.  *sigh*  I don't want to do the single mommy thing.  I want my husband with me. Who knows when I'll get to see him.  With having to pay rent and mortgage and all other bills for two households, that won't be leaving much for travel.

Exercise helps me with stress, so I will keep doing that.  Unfortunately, I'm also a stress eater.  I'm going to try going back to what I did with Body For Life...  when I'm really craving something, I can tell myself I'll eat it on my free day.  Even if I totally overdo it on my free day, as long as I don't splurge at all on the rest of the days, I know it works.  I lost 30# doing that before.

I will have more time to exercise once dh is gone...  and everyday will be the same at least until I have to go back to work.  And our house had better be sold by then!
