Good Afternoon All,

I've been having trouble not regressing to eat bad things since the Sonoma Wildfires started. I can't eat a lot at a time but I can snack. I'm trying to stay strong but when I get stressed its very hard to do. These fires are scary. We are still in our house but I worry about evacuating myself, my husband and our 3 cats a lot. It makes me want to eat. Any suggestions on willpower?

Where are you located? I live in Bennett Valley near the golf course and have been evacuated since Wednesday.

Im thinking you’ve already had surgery- this is a very stressful time, so scary but we all have to be strong and part of that is self care! Don’t eat and if you snack can you make them healthy snacks? (Ya what’s the point of a healthy snack! )

My surgery was scheduled for the 17th but it’s been canceled....Stay safe [emoji173]️

First priority is your safety, and health. You have my prayers, all of you in the path of this destruction my heart goes out to you.

I have had a house fire, not a forest fire where I lost all, but the stress still takes a huge toll on your mental and physical health. If you are told to evacuate, please just go and be safe.

If you have time right now, prepare to leave. Take inventory with photos, put documents in a container in your vehicles now, get extra canned food and water in your vehicle, pet supplies, make a list of where you can evacuate to and call for availibilty - all this prep will put your mind more at ease.

You will be in my prayers.

What does one thing have to do with another?

@JohnnyCakes this all has to do with staying focused when disaster strikes.

focused on what? the fires?

i don’t see why wildfires being nearby would affect what you eat.

Lot of people stress eat. I would consider a nearby fire stress inducing.

Thanks @ctdan I did eat due to stress about the fires. They were also quite near like a couple of blocks.

Glad they stayed away.
