At Home Is Hard
Thursday, February 17, 2011

I have a 1-year-old. The days that I am at home with him all day long, I run out of PointsPlus™ values by 5 o’clock! I am just eating up everything. Why is it that I seem to be so hungry on the days that I am home? Spoke about it in my last meeting with my Leader Liz. I guess it is because I am able to grab food all day in a way I can’t when I am working.

We figured out a few things that help me make it through those kinds of days. They are:

  • Chew gum.
  • Plan to use some of my PointsPlus Allowance on those days.
  • Go to bed early with the baby.

When I am working, I breeze through the days. They are busy and hectic and I don’t think about food all day. At home is tough. What do you all do to get through these kinds of days?
