It's no secret that I've struggled in the last few weeks, ok months. My weight has been at a standstill since early July. I've not totally gone off deep end. However, I've slipped into some bad habits.
One of the bad habits I've picked up is being lackadaisical about my fresh fruit and vegetables. I buy them and I 'usually' eat them. However, each week I find myself throwing more away. When I'm on track I eat each and every bite of my fresh foods, often running out before I get to the grocery store for a restock. Today I actually took my time and prepped some of my fresh foods that were sitting in the refridgerator. It felt good. I felt like I was taking control of my life, my addictions. Just that one simple step made me feel as if I was on the right track. It felt right. It felt good.
One step and lots more to come. However, now that I remember how good it feels to be in control I want to feel it again!!!!
Sometimes the little thing are all you can do, but those little things make a difference. God knows I've had times (/months/years) when I've felt I just couldn;t get myself together. All you can do is keep trying.
