What comfort foods do you find yourself having during this stressful time?  I have been having too many carbs but they are comforting to me. Plus chips  ahoy cookies, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, homemade vegetable soup. Still trying to keep mostly healthy eating.

We are trying to eat healthy and when we order in maybe a little treat, I am working very hard not to gain isolation weight 

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

I find myself stress eating which includes ice cream. Definitely eating comfort foods like meatloaf and mac & cheese. Also, using my crock pot a lot.

@CherryHugs . I totally understand and have been eating too many bad carbs during this stressful time. 

 

It's been a bad week for my diet but I have decided that starting tomorrow I will go back to my better way of eating (which I had been doing over the winter before the last few weeks), not watching as much news and exercising by going for a walk around my very quiet suburban community.

Potato chips are my guilty pleasure. Just bought a bag of Crispy Taco flavored Lay's Potato Chips....they are incredible!!!

But my total comfort foods are mashed potatoes and gravy, French fries and Maple Bars.

 

We are trying to be careful so we don't gain isolation weight.😊

I gave up sweets for Lent, but I've been eating too much pasta and snacks. I'm trying to do better, but it's hard. ☹️
