Ruhu's Journal, 05 November 2014

We seem to be forming a nice NWN (No Weigh Nov) team, so pack away that scale and let's get on with focusing on eating & living happily and healthier, and hopefully learning better where the scale fits in for each of us. I'm hopeful that without the resulting mood swings from that scale number, I'll be better able to use this time to make progress on my eating swings from those moods. Yes, I'm at it again, fully dressed in my lab coat, and once more try, trying again!

I'm off to Cincy tomo, so will check in from there when I can, but will know I have the love and support of so many here through the highs and lows that this regular visit brings. I have the wedding of my close friend's son's on Fri, time alone with my Mom and with other family planned throughout the 6 days there, as well as, more time for me with my friends. And, we have Mom's new apartment to put the finishing touches on... I'm hopeful it's only finishing that it needs! Mom seems to be doing ok with the move, but I'll feel much better seeing for myself.

Today, I'm off to 8:45 spin class, then errands and home to prep and pack for the trip. Of course, first, I'll pray --

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 I'll pray, breathe, journal, stay curious and express my way through this one day, meal, bite, thought & emotion. I'm so very grateful for each of wonderful you, my family & IRL friends, another trip to Cincy and to see my loved ones there, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! I'll be thinking of you all and wishing you the best until I'm here again! xoxox

Your recognition that the obsessing hasn't helped all these years reminded me of a quote but I can't find it.Something about 'all those years of criticizing yourself didn't get anywhere, try being kinder' or something like that. You can do this.
