Grains Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Day 16 and I've had an extremely stressful day. I have been faithful to Whole30 so far, but I could still use some tips and encouraging words. Anyone have any helpful thoughts? Thanks so much!

GFChris Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Breathe. :-) If you normally turn to food when stressed, use this time to experiment with non-food ways to cope. Call a friend, listen to music you like, dance, take a bubble bath, listen to a podcast or inspiring TED talk, read, do a puzzle, whatever. Whatever you decide, give yourself lots of compassion and treat yourself like your best friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much!Grains, like GFChris says: Breathe ....The other day I was hit with a big and I mean very big unexpected dental diagnosis with a big price tag...I felt I was hit by a truck. Normally, I would go "into myself" and stress and eat something bad, but I had an art class that night which was a very good thing. Like someone I know said....If I wake up in the morning on this side of the dirt....IT'S A GOOD DAY!!!! Be kind to yourself and drink lots of water. Sending a big hug and good vibes your way.
