90 days....three months. And it's been such a good 3 months, too. So many things have happened--conversations that I've been avoiding have happened, decisions have been reached, my self has come out from under cover (somewhat) and taken on shape and style...it's been
such a 90 days. They say that weight loss is just a little bonus of doing the spiritual/emotional work, and I totally, completely agree. For the record, I've lost 16 pounds over the last 90 days, and I'm 34 off my highest weight ever. But the other changes, standing up for myself, getting what I want,
deciding what I want, feeling worthy of getting what I want...those changes are more important. Those are the changes that are going to really affect my life. That have already affected my life.
My sponsor is coming to the meeting to give me a 90-day token tomorrow. That will be nice. The next one after that is 6 months, so another 90 days. Kinda scary to think of it all in one big chunk, but I only have to do it a day at a time. Forgive me if I sound program-ish, but "one day at a time"
is a comforting thought, especially for those of us who are impatient perfectionists.
For my next 90 days, I'm going to keep working my steps, keep planning my meals, and keep using my tools. I also have some life goals I want to achieve: find a job, continue dancing lessons, refine my style as "funky polished career woman", continue running and biking. So exciting!
