Day twenty nine…my body shape has altered
I woke up this morning and again I’m really not hungry, so I didn’t have anything till lunchtime. I’ve not really got a lot to report today. My health is good, my mental health is good. I think I’ve lost weight, I’ve deliberately not been on the scales even though I’ve thought about it at times - but I don’t want to as what would that tell me? It would either mess with my mind or I’d be wowed at the result. But I wasn’t doing it for that. I’m wearing clothes that feel they ‘fit’ me properly now, I’m tucking tops into jeans whereas I’d never do that before, so I know my body shape has altered in a way that I feel positive about, which is good. Yet I think I want to ditch the scales, I don’t want to go back to them because whether they read an increase, or whether they read a decrease, I am feeling better about myself, and I don’t want a number on the scale to take that away from me. So that’s my musings for today.
I’ve probably got an onion omelet for tonight because I can’t be bothered to go shopping, and tomorrow I’ve got some chicken to pop in the slow cooker so it’ll be done for when I get back from church, and I’ll have that with cabbage and broad beans and peas, add a bit of herby butter, rosemary, thyme and sage - let’s go all out!
I have today, and I have tomorrow, and then I have to seriously think about my life food choices going forward.
