Guess what! The sun came up this morning! Well, sort of, there was sun under a bunch of fog, but you get the idea. So, as much as I like to think I am the center of the universe, when I make a mistake, the world does NOT come to an end.
Hallelujah! Being the center of the universe is way more pressure than I want!
I was proud of myself this morning. I woke up, promised myself I was going to keep my word and not beat myself up for 'falling off the wagon' yesterday and went down to get my coffee. Coffee was followed by a breakfast that was on plan. Lunch was left over Hippy Dinner; it is one of those meals that is better the day after by the way; sans the cupcake. Dinner consisted of our modified homemade pizza.
I made it back on plan with no real bump in my road. I didn't even really think about it; it just came naturally to me! How awesome is that!
This weekend it is back to doing a whole week grocery shopping and meal prep for the week, I can do this, I can stay on track even when I make a mistake.
Tomorrow I'm even being brave enough to attempt a new recipe at breakfast, Ginger-Mango Smoothie. Understand that this takes great will and effort; I am NOT a morning person.
The coffee pot is on a timer. Hubby, bless his heart, sets it up the night before so when I come down in the morning the coffee is good to go. This is less of a loving gesture than plain old self-defense! But, since he is a wonderful husband, we call it love.
Falling off feels like a good time to beat up on ourselves, but really it is the worst time to. Katie, been there done that (this week as a matter of fact)but like you I am working on just picking myself up and dusting off and getting back on track. We are worth it. we are loved!

ReplyDeleteI find I keep forgetting and have to remind myself often. Some day it will sink in.
