I need to take baby steps again in the right direction.
Suze you are so amazing in the support to give to us all here thank you and huge hugs back to you
You just summed up exactly how I have been feeling. Since going back to work, I have been very stressed and am having a hard time coping. I am having cravings.

I would also love some advice from anyone.

(((blue))) ♥

For me...having a rough time right now, I automatically go back to basics.

First things first.
One day at a time.
Keep It Simple.

Because these things work/have worked for me before when I was stressed. I know that left to my own devices, I don't know what to do when I feel awful....so I lean on my tools.

Martina and Bluewaters, one of the things that really helped me was building other things into my work day. If you have cravings in the evening, make sure you have plans, whether it is yoga, working out, going for a walk, zumba, going to a meeting, doing other hobbies, going out to coffee with a friend, and make sure you stick to that plan no matter what. Keep staying strong!!
