Happy Summer! (Well, for where I am in the world anyway.....)
My mantra for the beginning of this season in 2018 is...
1) I may still blow off exercise now and again......but not as often
2) I may still sneak in fast food......but it comes loaded with guilt more than ever
3) I may still have some wine....but those days are getting fewer and fewer
1) My body is learning to push through to exercise, I feel so much stronger, happier
2) My body is learning to make better food choices, to experiment with healthier things
3) My body is learning that it feels better to not drink at all or not drink too much
I like who I am, who I am becoming. I am not perfect, I never will be.....and that's okay.
I'm coming to terms with my past, that I can't go back and make things different.
I am okay with the way things are and I need to focus on the road ahead, not behind.
Remembering that last night it felt great to drink a split of Pellegrino in a pretty glass and not wine
Feeling how good it felt to sleep well and get up this morning for a workout
And acknowledging that the brownie I ate last night tasted good even if not ideal!!
Happy longest day of the year!
Dig the summer resolutions! Good luck meeting them. It is amazing, isn’t it, how much health improves just by not drinking. I found the same is true with the pocket book. Saving money? Who knew how simple it could be.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how much money we can spend on stupid shit like alcohol!
