Question

Totally went off the rails today. This quarantine is getting to me. I really an learning that I am too plan oriented and when we cant plan, nothing makes sense in my brain, so i get angry and eat poorly. does anyone have any pieces of wisdom to share?  

Answer 1

I like being in control of things. With so many things out of my control lately, I am focusing on the things I do have control over like my health and eating. I find sticking to a routine has helped me tremendously. I also plan ahead the month with meals so I know what to expect.  

Answer 2

Why can’t you still plan? Create a plan while you’re at home. I still get up at the same time, wash my hair, put on makeup, eat breakfast after, etc. Make a plan!  

Answer 3

One thing you DO have control over is planning your daily schedule and meals. Set uo a bfast, lunch, dinner snackmenu for your fiid. Each day take out the oackets you will eat fir the day. Prep veggies in 1 or 2 cup amounts, cook a meal for the family using allowed meats and veggies and add another side for them. Make a list of big and little things you want to accomplish around the house in the next few weeks and tackle a couple things each day. Take charge of YOU!  

Answer 4

Food prep! Food prep! Food prep! Only way I can keep to the plan. Tomorrow is another day. Forget today and move on

Answer 5

Stay focused you can do this and get through it.  

Answer 6

I thought I wrote this original post. I’m exactly the same. I have to go into work everyday - it’s a bit stressful to say the least. I am a  stress eater. Today I’m putting together a simple meal plan and am going to stick to it
