So, No Weigh November (NWN), it is for me! And I'm thrilled some of you are joining me! Already bypassing the scale this morning was tough, but I did have a sense of how freeing this could be. I've been so all about that number for so long, even while I tell myself and write in this journal that I and all of us are so much more than that any number that scale shouts at us. So, this will be my chance to truly live it... one day at a time!
I've noticed more than once upon jumping on that scale that how I feel in my body sometimes is right on track with what the scale shows, but other times not at all. Hopefully, this month scale-free, will get how I feel better in alignment with what is truly just a mathematical calculation. I'm hoping the NWN, will be a Yes Way Nov to feeling better about this body and more in tune with how my eating and living choices effect me in so many more ways than just that number on the scale.
Of course, it's always Yes Way to start the day in prayer. I'm off to paddle tennis shortly then up to work for the afternoon.
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.
And through this one scale-free day and each one meal, moment, bite, thought and emotion, I'll pray, breathe, log, journal, stay curious and express my way. I'm so grateful for each of ever-supportive you, my family & IRL friends, the realization that my choices and ways of thinking impact every area of my life including those that aren't working as well as I'd like, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
