My Weight Watchers meeting focused on diversion eating today.  Diversion eating is when we eat because either we’re bored or procrastinating. I can relate. More so with the procrastination end. Whenever I have a big project to do, or it’s something I’m dreading, I do tend to procrastinate. In my past eating has been part of that scenario. This is not helpful. I now recognize that habit for what it is – a poor coping mechanism. The thing is, once you see something for what it really is, it is almost impossible to un-see it and that helps to change a bad habit.

One job I don’t love doing is dusting my curio cabinet (aka my featured image). I didn’t procrastinate I just did it and I did feel a sense of relief and satisfaction about a job well done once it was finished. I wonder, what are somethings you have to do that causes you to procrastinate? Have you ever had an episode of diversion eating?

What can you do instead of eating?  My leader, Bonnie shared this article with us today and I thought it was pretty interesting. It’s from Women’s Health and its title is 100 Things You Can Do Instead of Eating Mindlessly

Thank you for all the support and care many of you have shown to me. I really appreciate your messages, thank you, thank you, thank you.  I do not think I could travel this journey alone More tomorrow…
