Ruhu 3, Weekend/Evening Overeating 0 -- the count continues & I'm feeling so good as I continue to have a good weekend of healthy eating & living habit building. At the Mindful Eating for Binge Eaters Retreat, Dr Michele May spoke of how our disordered eating habits were like deeply entrenched tracks. She had us think of it in terms of a heavy truck driving the same path in wet mud and the how hard it would be after those are entrenched to change the route & turn in a new direction. My eating issues had my heaviest of tracks built around overeating & binging on sugar on the weekends, in the evening & especially Sunday evenings, when I travel and any other emotional time or when I found myself unexpectedly & undesirably home alone. I'm slowly turning that truck wheel hard enough to begin a new route with new healthier tracks. And, I know that the more I drive that new route the more entrenched & solid my healthy, mindful eating & living tracks will become. While my progress won't be perfect, each day or evening press on the gas pedal in that right direction deepens those healthier, more mindful habits that make life so much healthier & happier.
Yesterday I again had a good dinner. I was hungry & began eating it fast & less mindfully than I knew I should, but was able to remember that I can become mindful again as soon as I recognize my mindlessness. I got back to mindful eating and was able to enjoy another of my pre-self-packaged sweet treats & settle in for the night with a cute, mindless movie -- i think mindlessness in movie watching is ok, in my book, as long as its cute enough to keep my attention. I watched Footloose -- the remake of the one that was out when I was young with Kevin Bacon in it. Then off to bed & now on to an early workout, errands, book work & out to dinner with MIL tonight. DH continues to struggle with jet lag, but we did have a fun morning yesterday of tennis & the weather cooperated nicely.
Before i get on my way, 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 through this one day & each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion, I'll pray, breathe, journal, log & express my way. I'm so very grateful for each of totally awesome you, my family & IRL friends, another ATF weekend day & night, sunshine... for now?, hot bulletproof coffee, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
