TGIS! My weekend continues & so does my newly found enthusiasm for getting out of my comfort zone of my weekday routine. While I may always prefer what my weekdays have become (morning workout, & some time to meditate, socialize (in my kind of way), for pampering, etc.), I'm enjoying my weekends more & more as I continue to look at them as opportunities to live, love & eat mindfully. And, even though we'll still have our moments (as we did yesterday when DH realized his bedside clock had not been changed for daylight savings & he was going to be late for a meeting at work -- my fault of course for not thinking to change it!), DH has not been pressuring me to socialize beyond what I'm comfortable with. In fact, just recently the couple that I love spending time with that we went to Utah with , asked if we'd like to go to a Bruce Springsteen concert & overnight in May. DH told me it was up to me:). So, we're going!
Of course my disordered thinking voice still tries to tell me that this too shall pass… I'm feeling too good & doing too well for it too last… It must be a fluke & the overeating/binging/struggles to find a WOE that works for me will soon return. But, my self-care voice is getting louder & louder, and one day at a time and one Curious & Calm speaking at a time is keeping me in Charge. For now, that means staying my course gluten, lactose & sugar aware eating in my 16:8 IF window when I can do so mindfully. So, TGIS, it is! And, it is time to start my day in prayer before I head to workout, make a stop at Whole Foods, do some book work, then mass & maybe dinner out with DH (if he's not too sleep deprived from his travels) --
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.
Through this one day, and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion, I'll pray, breathe, log, journal & express my way. I'm so very grateful for each of unbelievably supportive you, my family & IRL friends, warmer temps & a real feeling that spring is truly coming, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
