I've been monitoring my food intake for the past 10 weeks, some weeks more closely than others, but hey who's perfect.... At any rate the portrait of my food habits that has emerged is that I am a stress eater...I didn't have a doctor diagnose me....but I can see the days/weeks where I was very stressed and the effects on my eating habits. This week at work we experiecned a full system failure--that's a crash for the non-technical but capable....and if you are not either, basically it was a full scale "f"-up beyond all reason and recognition. So day one it was some low-fat pretzels by day three of this spiral into techno-hell it was a Three Musketeer by day 5 it was a Dr Pepper, a Three Musketeer and some Baked Lays potato chips (had to pretend I was being healthy).
In the end, if I ate a vitamin or mineral last week it was a complete accident....bummer.....
So this could all be bad news but it's really not. Why? Because I now know conclusively that I am a stress eater and I know that if I do other things to control/deal with my stress I will overcome this "dis-ease" within. And that is a really good thing....oh...the system...it's fixed--lots of tape, band-aides and crazy glue but everyone will log on on Monday and be glad and not thank the techies that worked ridiculous hours and ate horrible food...but they will be happy and that's what's important....right?
