Less Stress

There has been a big change in my life in the last 6 months which has equaled less stress for me. Unfortunately, I eat more when I'm relaxed. I've gained a lot of weight and now my summer clothes don't fit. But instead of embarking on some expensive diet plan or rigorous exercise schedule, in accordance with the Buddhism I'm reading about, I'm just going to try and be mindful of what I choose to eat. Instead of grabbing whatever is closest, I will think more about each thing I choose and try and remember to decide for better things. My garden is close to producing lettuce and radishes and spinach so I will try and eat more of these things. I will do more walking but I'm not expecting instant results. If I can slow down, I think I will see gradual results.
Wish me luck!
