Waiting= Stress eating

Since January when I started this process I have a been great about managing my food tracking and killing these weigh ins. Since my last appointment I have gained almost 3 lbs from stress eating...I call Aetna everyday and it does not help that every one on here that was waiting with me has been approved. I hope I get the answer soon on day 8 of the wait. I cant take my mind off of it....

Hang in there!!!

Waiting sucks.....but get that "stress eating" under control now.....or you'll be doing the same thing later on for whatever reason presents itself on any given day.

There is no such thing as comfort food.

Go walk some laps around the neighborhood when you are stressed.....or do some situps or pushups..........

I think a lot of The Hunger is coming from my increased amount of activity because exercise and definitely makes me hungry more often the only difference between now and before I submit to insurance is I'm choosing Foods that are low in Protein and high in carbs or sugar but I'm in the gym Faithfully and I'm going to keep calling Aetna everyday

Hang in there. You have made it this far. Try not to let the nerves and anxiety of the wait take you off course! It is a process and you should be proud of yourself.
