Wishing Wednesday
Hello,
I'm sitting here at work wishing it were next Wednesday, because I'll be on my way to Niagra Falls. I'm really excited about vacation time this year!
I'm looking forward to having time off from work, spending time with my husband, and going someplace I've never been. I'm looking forward to the whole experience of it.
That got me to thinking about this weight-loss journey that I'm on. Yes I want to get to my goal...so that I'm no longer overweight, but if I'm going to get there, I need to enjoy the journey. Each new number on the scales is somewhere I've never been before, and while I'm at that number I learn things about myself: how to motivate myself, how to ask for help, how to set a new goal, how this isn't just about losing weight, but finding out who I am as a person, and learning to like myself and confront issues in my life instead of covering up my feelings with food.
That's my wish...to enjoy the journey.
What about yours?
Have a great day!
