Thursday already ... it has been a busy week!!
Not sure where I am with the numbers on the scale. I have not stepped on it this week. Will do so in the morning.
This week I have struggled with impatience and doubt. I find myself thinking ... there isn't enough time. I have felt like I am in a hurry and I'll never "get" there. It is the "old tapes" ... replacing those thoughts with more positive ones ... a never ending challenge but well worth the effort. If you can believe it ... I voiced some of those thoughts last night with hubby. HE was the one challening ME to be more positive, to push those thoughts away, to focus on the process, the journey rather than the destination!
Yesterday was a decent food day. I've been great at the exercise though it does seem like my body doesn't want to shift. Of course, weekends haven't been so great food wise ... and then there was the shrimp and french-fry night ... oh and the slice of cake. Yet, I can see myself at 180 lbs. I can feel it. I remember.
And so ... here goes.
I am strong and tall. I am long and lean. I weigh 180 lbs. I crave healthy foods. I am satisfied with healthy foods. I eat healthy foods when I am hungry. I am kind to myself. I like myself!! I take care of myself. I love my body!! I sleep well. I lose weight easily. I earn $100,000.00 a year. I am financially stable. I manage my finances well. I am organized and efficient. I plan well and follow through. I sleep well. My wood shed is full. I have $3000.00 saved for a Mexico vacation in February 2012. I am an expert in my field. People pay me for my expertise. I have a successful consultation business. I write well and people pay me for what I write. I am persistent. I am determined. I am successful. I own a vacation home abroad. I manage a foundation, Random Acts of Kindness. I am patient. Opportunities surround me.
Several visits today. A report to write. Another document to work on. Then ... tomorrow is FRIDAY (almost wrote FRYDAY ... not sure I need another fryday!!).
I am grateful today for ...
1. Others grateful lists.
2. Gorgeous, simply gorgeous weather lately!!
3. Sleep has been much, much better.
4. Working together with my husband.
5. Really good coffee this morning.
And she's off!!! LOL!!! In more ways than one I fear!! Have a lovely day ... practicing kindness, gratefulness, and taking care of ourselves!!

Nope-no one needs another FRYDAY! :) Well, not in the same week, anyway. Isn't it amazing to see the dynamic shift in your relationship?

Morning Carol, on before you and may not be on over the week-end so wanted to say hope you have a fab day and that you and hubby have a good week-end. And I'm hoping hubby's mood is good all week-end because no matter how you try, its hard to be 'up' when your partner isn't there with you. Hugs
