my journey to health

It is funny as I never saw myself as an emotional eater, I have discovered I truly am, I have been struggling lately as I have mentioned, well last night I saw my son off at the airport and it was pretty sad, what was my first thought, alcohol and junk food, sure enough pre mix bourbons and fish and chips!!
Then today I had a moment of sadness, straight to mcdonalds for a couple of double cheeseburgers!!! Not long after I went to my first session with my new trainer at the gym, and he said to me are you an emotional eater?? Well considering I had just done the above I honestly answered and said yes I am!!
So thinking about it some more, since I was told dad was now terminal I have struggled with my eating – I just never put the two together before. Now I know what makes me do it, I can start to work on it.

I am kind of at an impasse with my training, I have been training with amy for a few months now and she has done wonders for me, I can do things I never thought I could, but I need more, not more from her but more from me, when my motivation goes I only have her one day a week to push me and I need someone to push me more often, so I joined the gym, I am going with vanessa who really does push me and motivate me but in the nicest possible way.
Now this whole thing was a bit nerve wracking as I have come to trust amy and the thought of another trainer was a bit weird.
Eric however I loved, I had an instant affinity with him and he just seemed to get me so am stoked it wasn’t as bad as I thought. I will however continue with amy as I can as she started this journey she can damn well finish it lol!!!!
