Happy Saturday FS friends,

So I binged yesterday. I've tried hard to control emotional eating and up until yesterday, did really well. Turns out that my tolerance for setbacks isn't infinite and stoicism only carries me so far.

Aside from the ongoing anxiety relating to John's potential cancer diagnosis, I found out 2 days ago that there is something neurological going on with my own right foot/leg. In the past few months I've been walking a bit funny and my foot has been falling asleep. I mentioned it at the foot doctor so she did some physical tests and the right side is far weaker than the left. It's almost like drop foot except that it was the left side where the pelvis was fractured and repaired, and left that has the total hip so if any side had neuro issues it should logically be the left. Have booked with my PCP to find out what's up. All I know is that I'm scared witless of falling again so need a foot I can trust.

I was so looking forward to the totality on Monday as my old friend was to come down and spend the weekend and we were going to experience the event together. Given we're expecting a gazillion people here, did my shopping early which included things that normally I would not have in the house. Well my friend cancelled. So I ate my disappointment and underlying anxiety. That stuff I bought....gone. I snorfed most of it. Threw the rest away this morning.

What I learned. My body isn't used to junk anymore. Puffy and swollen today, wicked indigestion and poor sleep overnight.

Thankfully, that emotional eating phase has passed and am back on track today. Will enjoy totality with my furbabies instead.

Over and out

A slip occasionally does not derail all the fabulous progress you’ve made!!! Tomorrow the puffiness will have subsided and your resolve will return. Enjoy your weekend! 😊

I am sorry to hear you are having medical problems too. And about the friend canceling on the Eclipse Party. Hubby and I are having our own at home.

Finite emotional resources is very familiar. Especially during medical uncertainty. Hope additional support comes your way soon!
