Good Afternoon, FS Warriors! I am definitely an emotional eater! I did not blow it, but I came close. Had another Village board meeting last night. I'll just say it was very animated. There are always a few people that find fault with everything the board does. I knew the agenda was going to be tough, so I prayed hard for restraint, before I went. We had the Sheriff and the Village Attorney there last night, and some people had no conscience when it came to telling them and us what they thought of all of us. I wanted to reach out and touch someone, but I knew it would not go well if I did. Got home about 9:00 PM, and all I wanted to do was eat. I wanted something fattening and I wanted it "NOW!" I settled for some green grapes, blackberries and strawberry halves. I told myself that it wasn't worth going off my diet, and I was too tired to fight with myself. Still doing pretty well on my eating plan. DW made some Weight Watcher chile with a recipe she had from 30 some years ago, before Weight Watchers had the pre-packaged stuff. The unique thing about this chile is that it uses french style green beans instead of kidney beans. Believe it or not, it tastes like good ole Texas chile. Sure surprised me, but I've been enjoying it off and on for over 30 years now. Just thought I'd check in and rant a little bit. Toodles!

People can be real asses,especially when they have an audience. Good for you for deciding it wasn't worth blowing your diet for it. That's half the battle right there, deciding your health is more important.
Doesn't that green bean chili sound intriguing.

Yes, DK, those who do not want to be on the Board or a Committee do the most complaining! I have had that same experience as a Board member. When they complain I say, "wow, you have so much passion perhaps you should lead committee to make changes!" They back down prettry quick if they are expected to do any work!

My experience has been the same as HCB's....as a school principal, I usually tried to enlist my most vocal parents into helping resolve the problems they saw...guess, the problems weren't as big as they thought because no one ever volunteered or complained again. Stress eating can be very dangerous....good job at avoiding!

You have every reason to Rant! As for the chili - bet it is great. I often eat spaghetti sauce on green beans (and spaghetti for DH).

Nice job DK controlling the reactional eating. I guess there are lots of us like that, sure is the way I am. As for the townfolk, people can be idiots...I know, I've been there (both idiot and non-idiot at times). Keep on the straight and narrow. :)

Thanks, everyone! I'll try and get that recipe out of DW, but I'm pretty sure it's a matter of just substituting french style green beans into your favorite chile recipe. For those of you who don't make good chile, I'll get that recipe for you. :D
