I have been in a funk the past few days, and it culminated in a day of emotional eating yesterday. (I wrote more about that in my food journal.) This morning i was feeling pretty discouraged, but i did my exercise and then a few household chores that had been neglected, ate a somewhat healthful breakfast, had a good think and some self-talk. It's better; i identified a couple of things that are bothering me, including a big one over which i have very little control. Today, I am trying to focus on the basics of physical & mental/emotional well-being and saying the Serenity Prayer a lot.

I think you should be proud of yourself. You not only recognized how you were feeling and acting, but you took some steps to resolve it. Including being introspective as to why this was occurring. That's a pretty difficult thing to do. (And sometimes scary thing to do, IMHO.) I wish you better luck today. But I hope you don't feel discouraged. Change is never linear, and you're showing that you've grown a lot all the same. :)
