Weight steady from yesterday today but I won't complain. I lost about 3lb over 2 days prior. And I'm 2 smoothies away from fasting and looking for to the next journey of reflection. I started my last fast about 5 weeks ago and so much has changed since then;
I've lost 34 lb
I've lost my job
My daughters wedding has been moved by from this summer to 2021.
I've stopped using bad sweeteners (and found a good one but using much less than I used to)
I'm eating far better than I used to.
I'm enjoying my food more and savouring it my bites
I'm drinking lots of water (thank you sparkling water!)
Our family cabin financial issues are finally being settled after a lot of painful discussion, everyone having different motivations & priorities.
It's been a busy little 5 to 6 weeks in my life. Now that I know I have some guaranteed income to cover me until end of August, I really want to try clean my mind & spirit and focus on finding solid ground from the highs and lows of everything. Hopefully many nice summer days are ahead & I feel a keen desire to visit the cabin and do a lot of walking in the wilderness. My sons birthday is on June 17th so if still in fast leading up to I intend to break it the week before so I can enjoy a birthday meal with my family. While my weight goal is 30ish lbs away I am not going to stress myself by saying I want to be down 30lb by then. My last fasting experience tells me it likely won't happen. But I do believe a solid 220...10.4 lb down in the next month is very achievable. So thats where my weight focus will be on. I'd like to say that I will check the scale less often. Let's just say its a nice idea. Can I do it? I'll get back to you. 30+ years of on & off scale watching.
I'm looking forward to a walk today...and the simple pleasure of buying only a few groceries because of fasting coming up. whip cream for my smoothies and a ton of bottled sparkling water. I have food for when I come out of my fast so I think I'm good to go! All I need is for my body to roll with it better than last time!
Happy Friday!
