Well, Alessa- I ate and I am F.U.L.L: chicken substituting for turkey, some other, fatty meat+ stuffing, cranberry sauce, beets (cake and dessert I didn’t have) and red wine.. and I am STUFFED.

Had a wonderful first meeting with a Canadian woman whose name is the same as mine, Anita, a psychotherapist (referred to as “a psychologist” up north; got her contact info.. a special experience meeting her.

Almost danced, but not quite.

I am GLAD the holidays- for me- are over. Hate the food aspect of it.. tasty though. I just like every day to be the same as the one before. I don’t like “special” days.. just regular days 😌

That’s my report 😢

I hope you are sleeping well at this time, Fri, 4:07 am your time (Thursday, 8:07 pm here)

❤️ Anita

Hi Alessa 😊

It’s okay that you didn’t check in yesterday. I noticed and thought to myself that you were busy (and indeed you were).

The main reason I don’t like holidays is the food. I am anxious in regard to gaining weight. Had leftover cake and pie last evening though. It is interesting how satisfactory it can be to eat just a little dessert. I used to binge eat- large amounts. I am glad I haven’t done that in years. Still there’s anxiety about eating and body weight.

I’m glad you’re feeling better today and hope the infection clears soon!

🙏 ❤️ 🤍 Anita
