Ivory Soap!

I thought that might get your attention!  LOL.  No, I'm not eating it.  I do have what the doctor is thinking might be restless leg syndrome, which I'm refusing to let stop me from walking.  I went yesterday to the doctor (yes my wonderfully amazing doctor is open on Sundays :)) and he's going to run some tests.  In the meantime, I did some research of my own and there was some buzz online about people trying this....you take a plain ole bar of soap.  I had Ivory soap...and you pull your comforter or blanket back and place the soap down by where your legs go in between that and your top sheet!  Now why would that help? I have no idea!  But I tried it last night and I slept!  I was also exhausted from not sleeping nights before so we will see. HAHA.
I mention that because exhaustion and pain can cause us to overeat.  Comfort foods do just that....comfort us...momentarily.  I didn't cave!  I even had a temperature and the doctor said I had what looked like the beginnings of a throat infection.  Let me show you what the Old Maureen would've heard.  "Well, I have a throat infection, so I can't eat diet food!  I have to go get the makings for homemade chicken noodle soup and lotsssssssssss of cracker!  Sprite too."  Nope.  So far so good!
Please comment you guys.  The comments are very encouraging and keep me going!  Love you!
