Just for Today

Just for today: I am going to bite my tongue when my customers drive me crazy.....

Just for today: count to 3 before emailing or spouting off at work. (lots of stress!)

Just for today, I’m going to move my body for 30 min.

Just for today: stay away from anymore work stuff until after lunch tomorrow....

Just for today: I will embrace the grey and rain and MOnday feeling.

Just for today: I will remember that this head cold will pass. And it will pass sooner if I stay hydrated.

I can't tell you how much that initial statement you wrote is true... I was on my way to an amazing goal with the help and support of a very dedicated coach. After 4 years of working so closely together, one day, that coach decided it was time to end our relationship and walked away from me(no reason was given, they went on a short leave and I received an email from them to say, we're done). I have tried to work with others, but I was never able to find a connection I had with this coach.

It has been well over a year since we parted and I put all the weight we lost in 4 years back on and a bit more. Over 100 pounds. I always told myself, have that cookie (for me, my poison is chocolate/pizza), you can start tomorrow... But trust me, their was always an excuse to start tomorrow, to have that 1 extra sweet or piece of pizza.

I love your saying, just for today... It will stick with me. Just like I had a friend onetime tell me, you control the food, don't let the food control you. That stuck with me.

Just for today: I will.. (begin)

Just for today: I am going to stretch thru the pain of overdoing it... (I hope)

Your Origninal post really resonates with me.

Just for today: I will complete my goal of setting up my exercise space in the basement.

Just for today: I will NOT let my emotions interfere with my diet!

Just for today: I will not worry about what I ate today and how it was bad. Instead, I will think about how lovely it was to share my time and my food with a longtime friend.
