My last journal I mentioned that I'm an emotional eater. Well I've been on this binge for about a week now. It is so depressing. Today I was at Barnes and Noble looking at some food magazines, and I was thinking why aren't I cooking better instead of turning to fast food? I love cooking. There are so many delicious recipes I could make and enjoy instead of getting that temporary satisfaction out of Taco Bell or wherever I decided to go. I finally really realized today that the emotional eating is just making how I feel worse.
I've been reading this collection of short stories that woman writers wrote about their dogs. I also realized how much I miss walking my dogs, especially my bigger one. We've been buddies for years and I've neglected her. I see now how there are so many ways to better my life. I need to start now.

If you start walking your dogs, I doubt you'll hear any complaints. :) My dog loves being walked. I'm going to try and make it a habit to walk her every night for at least 1/2 an hour. I'm going on 2 days as of yesterday! It's a start; right? :D

For me, I have found that the more I cook, the better I enjoy food to the point I don't need as much 'inside me'.
There's something about the time it takes to prepare the food, chopping and slicing (even more so on those days I don't cut myself )and smelling and visually enjoying the ingredients really helps serve as the true 'appetizer' for me.
My SD commented the other day 'why is it that you always cook MORE when you're losing weight? If *I* started cooking like you I'd gain!'
So, my best answer to share is, FOR ME, if I just toss something in the microwave or phone for delivery or fast food... I guess that's why I get trapped by just eating it quickly and still feeling unsatisfied. My hunger is likely satiated but everything else is still up for grabs
