It’s not the future that you’re afraid of. It’s repeating the past that makes you
anxious!
Good morning, and am I ready to start my Thursday or
what! It may take a couple of mugs of coffee
to get me in normal Happy Owl mode ;-)
So yesterday I had a lovely chat with my boss which made
me feel better about my decision and then later in the day feeling much better
about everything I had a text conversation with my bestie. It felt a little be like a scene from ‘Groundhog
Day’, we’ve had similar chats so many times about our weight and losing it that
when we started the conversation I thought to myself ‘here we go again!’, then
I remembered all the members I’ve met – myself and my mom included that have
tried to lose weight numerous times and then suddenly it clicked and they did
it! So that’s how I’m feeling this
morning, I’m doing it and as Confucious say, “It does not matter how slow you
go so long as you do not stop.” Well I’m not stopping until I get there, I can
keep saying “the snow made me eat it”, or “I’m too busy and stressed right now
to focus”, or I can get on it like a car bonnet and stop with the excuses!
Today is weigh day and I’m back on it, chocolate has all
gone and I’m refocusing, I been playing the lead role in my very own production
of the ‘sod it show’ for a fortnight now but the parts got TOO BIG for me and
it’s time to move on! It’s time to start
writing a new role, I’m thinking a healthy, happy, balanced lead who spends her
days walking her dog, cooking nice tasty low ProPointed food, working her fab
job, enjoying taking her mom out for day trips, having giggly get-togethers
with her besties, and I’d like to throw in a cleaner but I think that’s not
gonna happen!
Yeah it’s time to stop messing about and take back
control, I have a stone to lose and I’d like to get it off before we go away in
June (there’s another scene from Groundhog Day, I’m sure if you do a search you’ll
find that sentence elsewhere in this blog).
Should knowing I’ve said it before stop me from keep saying it till it
happens? HELL NO! When I got to goal in 2004, I’d been starting
a diet every week from January till March when I eventually got my act together
and joined Weight Watchers, I got to my goal in the August of that year.
I’ve just spent ten minute sorting my food cupboard, my fridge
and freezer is almost empty so I’m off to fill it full of healthiness tomorrow,
good time as pay day was Monday so I can actually afford to this week. Haven’t decided on what I’m eating today, but
will have a look and think when I got make my next cuppa as this happy owl
needs more caffeine this morning.
I’m already BeYouTiful but I’m about to get back to
Eating Gorgeous and taking care of me again, how you doing in that area?
