“reduce stress, which helps me stay mentally fit, which allows me to be active, which … actively reduces stress.” …chicken or the egg :), or in other words what you are saying in this well mentally exercised quote of yours is what I see this a the universal connection that pretty much sums up life as I know it. ☯️ fun stuff 😊
I have experienced just about everything you wrote, only with me it’s WW points rather than calories. I usually have leftovers at the end of the day. At this point I feel as if I’m trying to prove a point, and that point is it’s not my fault. I’m doing everything right so there must be something wrong, right? I don’t know what else to do but stop eating, and I know that’s not gonna happen.
And as far as stress, this year has convinced me to retire in December, a little earlier than I had planned, but a necessary move. The job I used to love has become stressful and at this point in my life, it’s just not worth it. Fortunately that seems to be the (basically) only stressful part of my life. Well, that and not losing weight.
I can relate to the stress part! Not complaining but yes, the things you love do come with stress. Glad you are sticking with it Joe. Keep going and keep learning!
