what to say when you have nothing to say
This time around I am determined to come here to my blog and write even when I have nothing to say. I think it's important to my process of change....
Often I think of this place as a blog to write FOR others and to INSPIRE others... and that's true, in part. But I need this for ME as well.... I need to make myself come here and blog my feelings, .... my ups and downs... successes and failures... so if nothing else, I can have a record. It will help me remember later what worked and what didn't. It is a log of my success most of all... because no matter how many little set backs I have, I'm SO going in the right direction...
Anyway.... as I was saying... I have nothing to say today! ha ha
Seriously I almost didnt' write this morning because I had a bit of a bad day yesterday. I don't WANT to record negative stuff here... I want to be positive every day for everyone else! I want you all to see how GREAT I'm doing...
But yesterday was a day of minor set-backs.... I snacked a bit much and ate a few things that were strictly forbidden (mmmm... FORBIDDEN FOOD!... haha)... Actually I shouldn't say they were forbidden, because my new way of looking at this is that nothing is forbidden... I just have to plan and allow for all that goes in my mouth. THAT'S what I didnt' do yesterday. I just ate and ate some major calories..... for the heck of it.
The good news is that I MADE myself go to the gym for a 30 min quick cardio session last night. It was later than I like to go -- 7:30... but I went. I hadn't been to the gym since Thursday of last week (seriously couldn't help it --- booked up with other obligations)... and I think the lack of exercise can be blamed for my waning motivation in the diet department as well. Exercise is so important for not only physical well-being, but spiritual and mental as well!
So here I am blogging this morning... admitting my failures for all to see. Most importantly though... I'm admitting to myself. (because MYSELF knows that bingeing and hiding it does NOT do me any good whatsoever... we've been there and done that!)
Guilty as charged!...
Back on track this morning though.
Happy Humpday!
