Weighing Heavy

I have some thoughts that keep weighing heavy on my mind.  I know that weight loss is just as much mental as it is physical so I have been trying to pay close attention to the way I feel.  Here are some things that I know to be true.  

I know that when I get out of bed at 5 am and go to the gym, the rest of the day, I get more done and I feel so much better.  

I know that when I eat healthy, I feel great.

I know that when I crave sweets the most it is when I am really, really hungry.  If I eat a good meal, the sweets don't seem to call me as loud.

I know that I have a grab it fast problem.  When I am late or in a hurry (which seems to be too often)  I always want to grab something quick to eat.  For some reason, being late or busy means needing food for me.

2 to 4 pm is my trouble time.  Every treat in the house, or store for that matter, calls me during this time.  If I can make it through this I can have a good day.

I know that food is a social activity.  It is easy to over eat and justify it as a special occasion. There are far too many "special occasions" in my life! 

I keep trying to analyze the way I feel whenever I eat or want to.  Eventually I might get the hang of this all.
