DAY 4 of BEING who *I* want to be by DOING what *I* say *I* will do!
Today was the first time I ate breakfast since getting back on fs & was it ever an eye opener. I had what many consider a healthy breakfast: a Tomato & Onion Omelet with a sprinkling of shredded cheese & a side of bacon. If you check out my food diary you'll notice the portions were slightly over what an individual serving is but I didn't eat enough for 2. What would you think was the most fattening of it all? It wasn't what I thought! But,that's what the food diary is for...to help me see where my thinking & actions need adjusted :)
I watched another episode of HEAVY & read a comment or two from your posts before I headed out on my 2 mile walk. While I walked I kept the words of Ronnie's therapist (A&E) going in my mind with minor tweaks to fit my circumstances."I know how to lose weight,I need to learn how to keep it off." "There is no vacation from this way of eating." "Put my abilities to the test."
DAY 1 I *did* it! I put my abilities to the test & proved to *myself/my body* that I could PUSH past what I think I can do & do more & it felt AWESOME. :)
DAY 2 *I* did it *again*! Sweet talking myself & laughing aloud the whole way :)
DAY 3 Yes I did it,but without outside motivation.Proving to myself/my mind/my body that *I* can do this *alone* if need be. That my weight is my problem. ONLY *I* can do what it takes to change it. I have the weapons of war *inside me* to fight this battle & win.Pushing past what I *think* I can do....scratch that! Pushing past what my BODY *thinks* I can do I found them. *I* have let my BODY set the rules long enough.TOO LONG! I,*my BRAIN*,tells my body what it will do & my body will DO it! THAT is PROPER functioning :) *I* set the rules!
DAY 4,today, my body wanted to quit. I didn't want to change to walking clothes (Who says I have to? Put on the sneakers & go) A negative attitude was coming on as I began thinking about how far I would push myself today (don't think about that, just smile,stand straighter & enjoy being outside) Ugh,it's HOT!(Speed up to reach the shade,slow down to enjoy it,repeat all the way home) My foot hurts(roll off it.MAKE it walk properly,it will feel better.WHO'S the boss?) Oh! Half way thru :) (that's great! don't forget we're adding in that col'desac) Groans escape from deep within (There will be none of that,YOU enjoy walking & getting healthy! :)) My steps begin to falter & shuffle on the pavement (watch that form.pick those feet up. YOU"RE gonna make it) .................and I did 2.2 miles in 25 min's, not that the time matters just needed it to enter in activity log :)
Tomorrows another day!
