Stress eating…….
Boy was last night a bad one! I had my grandson and his 4 year old sister for the weekend. Boy is my grandson having a hard time handling all the issues he has going on. His behaviour last night was unbelievable. He was meaner than I have ever seen he was kicking his sister and when I tried to get him to come sit with me he kicked me and told me he hated me and he didn’t have to listen to me! I was so shocked at this behaviour I have never seen from him. He has some behaviour issues at home and in school, but I have never seen this. I know he is having a hard time with his disabilities and all the things he has undergone this week, that is why they have reccomended the pschy counseling. I called my daughter in law when the kids went to bed last night to let her know what happened and to make sure she was going to do something about his counseling as soon as possible. I did something I am not proud of! I ate 2 little Debbie cakes and some cheesies and had a big glass of milk, as soon as I had done it I felt like crap! I still felt like crap this morning!! I am back on track and hopefully the next time I think I am going to do this, I can talk myself out of it!!
The kids are back home and I have a ton of things to do that didn’t get done when they were here, but I needed to come on and check in on some of my buddies first.
I hope everyone is having a good weekend!
Wowsers sounds like a stressful night-hang in there! I don’t have grandkids yet but I know when I am dealing with my own kids ‘teenage’ issues that sometimes I think food will make me feel better and instead it makes me feel worse!!! I always wonder why do we think eating unhealthy will make us feel better?
Kudo’s to you for getting right back on track! That’s awesome!!!
Sorry that you had such a stressful time. I know that must be hard. I am sure it is tough for your grandson as well and he is acting out. I hope things get better. Hang in there and good job on getting back on track. Just remember the next time you want to go off track how you felt this time. I know it is hard, but you can do it!
What a rough night for you. I bet Cody has just been through way too much this week. You all have..poor little kiddo.
I’m gonna have to kick your hubbys rear end for those Debbie cakes!! I’m like you, if its in my house I EAT IT!! Thats why I can’t have “junk” here. Well, good for you getting back up. Tommorrow is my GET SERIOUS again day. Take care…
It sounds you like you had your hands full this weekend. I’m sure you grandson is experiencing so much right now that he doesn’t know how to communicate his feelings appropriately so is acting out to try to express himself! Please don’t take it personally. But good for you for getting back on track today with your eating! Best wishes for you (and your grandson)–I’m sure it is a difficult time for all of you!
I am glad to see you have been progressing well. I hope to be around more and continue to see your progress.
Sometimes it is hard for kids to communicate everything they are feeling. And it is so hard for us to watch them good through it and feel a little helpless. I am sure counseling will help your grandson deal with what he is feeling.
I still find myself wanting to turn to food for comforter then I am stress or hurting. You are doing so great and just think of today as a new day. Keep up the great progress.
Sorry to hear how things are going with your grandson. I’m sure that the counseling will help. Don’t beat yourself up for reverting to stress eating, we all do it sometimes. As long as we keep it to only every now and then I think there really isn’t anything wrong with it.
I love the new pic!
Cheesies and Little Debbies. Well, at least you didn’t eat more than that! A little splurge once in a while won’t kill you.
