Sorry I haven’t posted in the last couple of days. Honestly, my body has just been tired. If you have read my last couple of blogs, you
may be aware that I have decided to go back to basics. I think that remembering how I was when I
started and when things were new, will help.
So far, I have to say even though my focus this week is on something
else; it seems to be helping across the board. I am making better choices. This morning I was reading my devotional and
I was reminded that I need to let go of my expectations. When I do that, my focus will change and I
will be free to “let go and let God”, as my Pastor has said many times.
Honestly, I realized something earlier that had not occurred
to me until recently. I have stopped focusing
on the traditional “meals”. I still do
that for dinner (other than breakfast for dinner), but I seem to be focusing on
what I have on hand that will sustain me.
For instance, yesterday I had 2 cucumbers and avocado hummus for
lunch. Today, I had a boiled egg, 1 cup
of carrots and avocado hummus for lunch.
I could have ordered a sandwich or gotten a salad from Subway, but I
choose not to because I was satisfied with what I had eaten. It is interesting to me to note my mind
shift.
I am excited to see if my progress shows on the scale, but
to be honest, I simply feel better. I am
moving more, perhaps not as much as I truly need to, but moving
nonetheless. At least that is a start in
the right direction. Although my meal
prepping/planning isn’t going quite as I had planned, I did cook some eggs in
the oven this morning and will try to make “Mom-lets” tonight and will
hopefully have some other sort of protein besides eggs to help me out.
