There will
be many chapters in your life. Don’t get
lost in the one you’re in now.
So it’s
a month away from Christmas, is it bad that the only thing about it I’m looking
forward to is a week off work, actually that’s not true, I’m looking forward to
spending a whole week with my mom and enjoying our version of Christmas.
This
month will go really quickly I’m sure for most of us, there’s always so much
going on and so much to get done that it’s easy to put your health and
happiness on hold some days, it’s important to make a conscious effort not to
go into ‘sod it’ mode too often or you could undo all the hard work you’ve
already done this year.
Let’s
enjoy the next month! A bit of what you fancy does you good, balance is what it’s
all about, overindulging till you feel yak isn’t the way to go!
I’m off
for coffee this morning with a couple of leader friends and if I skip breakfast
or make it zero to low ProPoints, I could partake in a bit of something nice whilst
there, I’m thinking in cake form! Then
this afternoon I think I’m in charge of a small person for an hour and that may
involve McDonalds, so that’ll be lunch, because I know I cannot go in there and
order a black coffee, I have a case of McD tourettes, I go in thinking, happy
meal, happy meal, happy meal. I get to
the counter and say, “can I have a happy, erm Big Mac Meal please!” When the say, ‘would you like to go large’, I
shake my head from side to side and spurt out “YEAH go one then!”
No self
control in that place at all I’m afraid, I just try to stay away as that’s the
only way I can resist!
Know
your limitations I say…
And on
those occasions that you forget them and go crazy, just wake up the next day,
smile and start afresh.
It’s a
glorious morning out there, sunrise is just beautiful and there’s a frost, so the
noise of neighbours scraping the cars was what woke me up this morning!
So here’s
to Cake and Christmas and to a balanced approach to healthy and happy, if it
makes you happy and it’s not making you Unhealthy, then let’s enjoy and give
ourselves a break as often as we need too.
This is a forever thing remember…
