Week 16: finding patterns

CWell, it is now end if week 16 of my Challenge. I weighed in at 159.5 this morning. And to tell you the truth I was thrilled with that at all, but I accept it.

Everything in my life is a result of my past decisions.  I am responsible for everything that goes on in my experience.

This challenge has not gone the way that I had intended it to go, but I have learned some things.

I have learned that I eat under stress. When I eat under stress (such as my daughter demanding me to do something and my toddler climbing all over me as well as pulling my shirt up to drink), I eat too much and I eat too fast. Needless to say, it is my an enjoyable experience yet I do it.

It is after all a choice.

I can choose to do something else, but the default pattern when I am stressed, tired, bored or in need of a distraction, I turn to munching (as long a it is available).

During the week of my Four Day Short Home Cleanse, I was able to eat only 3 meals a day without straying. And last week I was also able to continue with that trend until yesterday while u wa preparing lunch, I had some raisins and peanuts. An again this evening while preparing lunch for tomorrow I had some peanuts and raisins.

Now that I notice it, I can make a plan to do something else.

Another pattern I have noticed is starting something and not following through. This is something I deeply desire I change.

Why?

Because I know I can grow and become someone inspirational and useful to this planet if I did that.

I think that this is a time when I reach out to fellow health coach peers for support. I want to be held accountable for my behaviour.

The truth is my current results are a cuination of decisions that I have made up until this point.

So far I have felt sleepy the last three evenings, eyes sore, nostrils feel like a suppressed cold is withering - yet when I get myself into a state of power, the whole world aroun me feels my energy!

Perhaps it is time I revaluation my motivation for becoming 25 pounds lighter, tighter and brighter in 5 months.

That will be the subject if next week's post.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post.  I send you waves of love and blissful blessings..
