HAPPY MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!!
OK, I'll be honest, It was a really tough morning. lol. I was REALLY tired this morning. I went through my normal Monday morning, why-did-i-eat-that-JUNK-yesterday phase. Yes, yesterday was my GUILT-free day. Just because I don't have any guilt doesn't mean I don't have regret. I'm considering just having a free MEAL next week. When I started my journey, I was planing out on MONDAY what I was going to have to eat on my free day SIX DAYS LATER! I am so thankful that I have broken that mental pattern. Now my free day comes and I might think about it on Saturday. By Sunday evening I am asking myself, was that really worth it? Now, I do realize that there is a mental and even physical benefit to having a free day. I just don't feel that for me it's necessary to make it for the entire day. The EFL eating plan is so good, I have no problem eating a healthy breakfast, then an apple and cheese mid day. Maybe it will be a big lunch after church where I don't worry about what I eat. If I eat a big enough meal, I'm usually not hungry in the evening anyway. The one free day victory that I will share is that even though I ate what I wanted, I still only drank WATER! I really had NO desire for anything else!
Well, here's to a GREAT week. I've got a LONG way to go so I better get going!
