Victory Over Stress

Today I had to work day six of a job I'd rather not be doing. Plus, I'm on call for the weekend. In weekends past, I'd treat myself to a "good" lunch. You know, some big greasy sandwich with fries. But today, I had an apple salad with raw almonds.

I also received some good news today. I had contacted the Dabbling Mum with an idea for a book on budgeting. They not only liked that idea, but I'll also be writing a devotional for them. With all that good news, I didn't celebrate with food. This is a major change in my life.

Whether the stress is bad or good, don't turn to food. As the saying goes, "Eat to live, don't live to eat."
