I mentioned at the beginning of 2009 that I was going to make a point to do my daily reading, journaling (and exercising?) every day....not to play catch-up later. I have been doing it. There has been no letting up. I have been neglectful of this blog, but unfortunately, I don't have an epiphany everyday.
Because of the snow day today, I did my daily reading this morning in bed while the kids watched TV. I read a very powerful excerpt from a book titled Hope For Today. "...Coming to terms wtih my history and letting go of it....allows me to enjoy today and to move into the future....I (have to) give my self the chance to have a better day."
Although, not WW material, this really hit home for me, esp. since I have been arguing with myself about my 3/4 journal (you know--the one where I did not write down any of my dinners) and calculating the points for dinner, along with drinking my milk.
All of this almost happened just by accident. I did not mean to forget. I just did. I wrote down everything else. It did not even dawn on me that this was happening until I went back to reflect on what I did this week. I realized what happened BECAUSE of my reflection. Thank God I was writing it down (or not) so that I could figure this out.
Anyway, what .....lost my train of thought....had to go deal with very hyper children.
Today I measured, calculated and documented points for dinner. I still have one left. I know, right? What do you do with one point? Perhaps a glass of wine and some Weekly Points Allowance, but not before a workout.
I know that I can forgive myself for the mistakes I made yesterday and start over today, if I need to.
