Habits

In the past, when stressed, I would turn to alcohol, food or self pity. Well, I may still resort to self pity but my NEED for alcohol and food have subsided. 

When Lucy 'moved' (A's terminology), I didn't want to eat. I am noticing a walk is fulfilling or releasing the negativity. I crave a walk. Unfortunately I don't take advantage of it or the timing isn't right but I try to find another ways, physical ways.

This is a big accomplishment. In the beginning of this change, I still turned to food for comfort. I believe I posted that and it was something I wanted to overcome. Well to a degree I have. It's certainly not perfect but a huge step up. Sigh with a smile.

I am sure it's not the way I am eating that is altering things but I believe an unconscious decision for change of bad habits was made at the same time.

On another note... I still need to tweek my eating. I've hit another rut but will simply read and research a boost. Nature of things...ebb and flow.

Here's to turning 40, and making things better. Cheers!
