Wellness

Today I was very active and feeling myself again.  My normal appetite has fully returned, and I am not having cravings for corned beef hash for breakfast anymore; Special K with fruit satisfied me until lunch, even through a two mile jog/walk with two dogs.  I didn't want to get on my scale just yet, but had no signs of water retention and so went ahead and did it, dread in my stomach like cement, but guess what?  Oh my gosh I couldn't even believe it myself!  I was twelve pounds lighter than last Thursday morning at the doctor's office.  Cognizant of the fact that the doctor's scale is always a tad heavier than any I've ever used, I was still ecstatic and the feeling remains with me, pushing me to grill chicken for the next four dinners or lunches, my choice, and salads with tons of veggies and even some garbanzo beans.  I'm going to stop posting pictures of my meals just because of this song, which had me laughing non-stop last night though some of it hit home; I cannot lie:  https://youtu.be/zq7Eki5EZ8o
I have this habit of posting meals on fb when likely my friends could care less lol.  I'll blog about my journey back to me, instead.  Aren't you a lucky reader?  I just want you to know that when you stick to your guns, so-to-speak, whatever your goal, so long as it's a veritable good one, you will experience encouraging milestones along the way; it won't all be torture.  Today has been an amazing day; I'm proud to be human, proud to be a woman, but not too proud.  We all should be careful of the pride conundrum.  Thinking I'm all that, may lend me to forget I have egg on my cheek or spinach in my teeth.  Look in the mirror and love what you see.  Then go teach the world to sing.  Until next time...
