It might only be Day 34 but it feels like day 340! I wish these shakes would start tasting better! I was talking to my therapist today and she reminded me of what a big deal this is and how strong I have been. And I am starting to apply mind over matter more and more. I had a thought cross my mind this morning..."I can't do this - I want to quit". But then I told myself that I needed to get through another hour, drink my next shake, and reassess the situation. Sure enough after that hour, I no longer wanted to quit. I'm not weak, I just had a weak thought and those are easy enough to overcome. Tomorrow is weigh-in again and then I start Week #6. Almost 1/3 of the way there!
Wow do I hate Mondays. They tend to be long and dramatic. I left work early to go see my therapist. It sure is nice to get home by 4:15 in the afternoon. This evening, however, was completely draining. We went to see a couple of family members who are in a drug rehab hospital. What a journey they have ahead of them. I can't imagine being in that situation. My weight loss journey is hard enough - I can't imagine being chemically dependant. I want them to succeed and to get their lives back. I need to make it a very serious matter of prayer.
Got home tonight from San Diego and another dumbass parked in my reserved spot. I can't begin to count how many times I have lost my parking spot. It really gets my blood boiling. I always leave a note on the person's car. I have yet to see a repeat offender. Second time...they get towed. But I haven't gotten to do that yet. But when I do - by golly I think I will like it!
Another thing I came home to today is this little innocent feline...
