Staying curious and non-judgemental is my goal as I approach another weekend of opportunity followed by a trip to see my Mom. In fact, I've started a notebook page to record what i observe... which of course, you'll hear about here too... I just have to jot in down right away before it leaves this scattered mind!
Some things I've noticed so far are -- My weight is staying under my goal, even with some overeating on the weekends. Since eating more whole foods in a Dr Hyman type-of-way (mostly grain, dairy, sugar & caffeine free), I don't have the sugar cravings as much as a craving for nuts, seeds & nut butters. I have more energy at my workouts and tennis.
In addition to the many things I have to be grateful for, I'm feeling so supported here as they move my Mom today and I plan my trip to see her later next week. Her Alzheimer's is obviously progressing and this move could set her back even more, but I know it's for her safety and to get her all the help she needs. I can't say enough how your love & support here helps!
I'm off to spin class this morning and work after... and to be my doggie's taxi service to/from her spa appt! But 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, log, journal, stay curious & express my way through this one day and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion. I'm so grateful for ever-supportive you, my family & IRL friends, nonjudgmental curiosity, finding those missing pieces to this healthy eating & living life puzzle, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
