Day 3: made it through even with eating crud and dealing with stress!

The best thing about Day 3 on my Journey is:
Day 4 is now starting!

Stress been building up because I have a very very ambitous multi-pronged attack at a project that relies on the skills of a group people none of who (except for myself) is full time on it.

And I have to deal resources who are failing there commitments .

And no I did not pig out to supress the the negative info I was getting.....

Positives even though I had some food that doesn't boost my metbolism (lots of starch), I stayed in my calorie zone.
