more positivity...

Just read a blog on sparkpeople....it was very positive and talked about celebrating who we are, and finding and celebrating our successes....and it talked about the negative voice within....oh baby do i have a hard task master within!!! Was just sitting here lamenting a little bit about the last few days and how i haven't been tracking...Now i am going to think about all the positive things of the last few days. That's what my 1000 actions thingy is on sparkpeople too, documenting all the individual steps i have taken towards my goal. This isn't an airy fairy thing, ignoring the less than good, or using this as an excuse to carry on......i am more than aware of the 'bad'...but i need not to dwell on it, i need to forgive myself and move on, and find the 'good' and celebrate it.

1. didn't have anything at Mcdonalds yesterday
2. am feeling relaxed, and am looking after myself and not being too hard on myself
3. drinking from a smaller glass, and being a bit more aware of how much!
4. didn't have a donut at church yesterday....didn't even really care!
5. am enjoying myself, each day! this is my life!! i'm not wasting it by denying myself and looking forward to some magical day when i am thin and therefore my real life can start....
6. am learning to listen to both my voices...they are often in conflict....do it, vs don't do it!!! it's a bit tricky to know which to follow, but at least i am listening gently and trying to figure out the best way....
better go, kids running wild!!!
