Day 3 - Dealing with Stress

As a teacher, I know the one incident rule all too well. Almost every teacher can tell you how a great teaching day was undermined by one small incident that de facto became the entire day. Very easy to stress eat in those situations, and where workouts become even more important. By the way, I didn't even have my license until I was 32. I would love to be in a situation where I had no car. It sucks that you need to be dependent on someone else, but you're 100% right, cars are a financial drain. Don't let our car-addicted society dictate what is right for you. I am doing plant-based eating now, so fruit is on the table. When I looked at what works for me, I realized I can give up meat, dairy, and simple carbs a lot easier than I can give up all carbs. Whole grains and fruit are perfect for me. I don't think there's any fruit I would refuse, although raisins can be too sweet to eat in large quantities.
