French fries to the rescue

I was never a real stress or emotional eater, but I just had to put my dog to sleep because she had metastatic breast cancer.I dont care I want French fries tonight! I lost 2 dogs in one month! I will try to pick myself up another day.

    It turns out I was so emotionally distraught I couldn’t even eat the French fries (I ate only 4). So today I’m going to go to water aerobics after work to relieve my stress.

  • Oh I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. The pain is real indeed. Is there something else you can do to soothe your heartache? A long hot bubble bath, a stroll to a beautiful place, a good movie on Ne

Awww! So sorry to hear this. ((hugs)) You are stronger than fries, but I understand. ((hugs)) Do what you need!

I am so sorry to hear about your pups.

Hang in there, and try to remember all the joy they brought to you. That doesn't go away. ?

Oh I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. The pain is real indeed. Is there something else you can do to soothe your heartache? A long hot bubble bath, a stroll to a beautiful place, a good movie on Netflix or at the theatre, etc? If you really feel you need to reach for food try to find a healthy alternative to french fries. Hang in there. Let yourself grieve. Again I'm very sorry for your loss.

Thank you so much for your kind concern! I'm still grieving but just trying to go on with life. I'm a little disappointed in myself because I was doing so well with eating healthy but the last couple.days I've had some junk food a piece of cake a couple of fries. I'm hurting and I know eating bad things isnt going to make me feel better but I'm just trying to cope. I am going to go and workout tonight try to get back on the right track. Again thank you for your concern.

Good for you for being mindful of your actions, even if your choices aren't necessarily the best. At least you are aware which is part of the journey. Also very good that you are getting yourself to work out. That is important and will help you as well. Hang in there my dear.

Are you a member of the EU? Its going to be very difficult, if not impossible, to legally work and move around the EU if youre not.

What will you do if/when you need medical/dental care?
