Home, sweet, home! It was great to see my Mom & DS, but there's no place like home. And, I made my first baby steps toward coming home from a trip without my usual sugar eating/overeating/binging fiasco. I am so happy to have dodged that bullet, & feel physically and mentally great having done so. While it wasn't a perfect eating day, I planned 3 healthy meals & a special treat for after dinner, stuck closely but not perfectly to my plans and ended my trip & reentered my "real life" in a much healthier way than has been my habit for a long time now. For me, in addition to building my healthy living & eating road one day at a time, I also have to take it one trip at a time as returning home has been a huge trigger for me and is a pattern well engrained in my brain.
As I'd journaled about, Mom was worse than I'd expected, but I've updated my "Mom Notebook" with my observations, her doctor's comments and what i learned while out there about the best things to do with her, how much time to spend with her each day & how long to stay. I'm fortunate to have the ability to go more frequently but for shorter periods of time which will be the way to go in the future. And having DS meet me there was such a blessing, so it'll be important to have others with me as much as possible.
Today, I'm off to tabata spin then catching up around the house & with my bookkeeping work this afternoon. I'm back to my IF WOE staying gluten, lactose & sugar aware. Today will be my 1st 500 calorie fasting day for the week, but again I'll be busy which makes it much easier. After a horrible night's sleep on Sunday night, I slept so sound last night gratefully.
But before I begin my day, I'll pray --
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen.
And again for this one day and each one meal (there are only 2 today!), bite, moment & emotion, I'll pray, breathe, log & journal my way. I'm grateful today for each of you & the wonderful support you all showered on me while I was away, my IRL friends & family, to be home again after a sometimes great & sometimes not so great visit with Mom, an always great visit with DS, and to have the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
