Day 11 ODAATOV:)... And all continues to go well! Yesterday was a bit more of a struggle, mainly because I was tired throughout the day. I know form past experience how fatigue can diguise itself as hunger, but it's still hard to deal with even as I try to rest and/or nap when I can. I'm realizing that since it's sometimes out of my control, that I just need to pray for that serenity to accept what I cannot change.
I'm feeling really good though again today & happy that I stayed my course throughout the fatigue & restlessness of yesterday. I know that with each success I'm building that new roadway and stabilizing my way to healthier eating & living. Especially being with this group -- 14 of us in all -- who I love dearly, but requires much more socializing than my mostly introverted self prefers as well as many more sweets and other other food temptations. The last few times we vacationed or were together, i.e. over the holidays, I totally got into the sugar, so I'm especially thrilled that I'm taking my journey away from that pattern.
DH & both DSs are off deep sea fishing this morning with one SIL and 2 of her kids. Other SIL and I will workout, then head to the beach with the rest of the gang here. This SIL teaches fitness classes so we've been working out together each morning, which being the exercise addict, I so love. I'm really blessed that I get along with SILs so well -- having lost my own sister, they've really taken me in as their own. Neither lives close to me -- one about 4 hours away by car & the other, 2 by plane, but when were together, it's like we've never been apart.
But before we hit the gym, I'll pray for that serenity. And throughout this one day, and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion, I'll pray, breathe, journal & express my way. I'm so grateful for each of wonderful you, my family & IRL friends, having fun & really enjoying this special time on vaca, and with the health & wealth to live this life I love! Xoxox
