You guys, I'm feeling good. I'm feeling good because I can see behavior's in my life that previously derailed me that I am overcoming. I'm feeling good because I have good friends who are helping me through this and being very supportive. I'm feeling good because I feel like I can finally see my life piece together here in Phoenix. It's not perfect, not yet, but I can see friendships developing and that in the long run, I can make Phoenix my home.
I wrote earlier that last week was really difficult and that I had fallen into some bad habits. But I decided to take recovery seriously, and really focus on writing everything I ate down this week. I even did it with a friend, where I put some money in an envelope and if I slipped up, I'd have to give her that money. When I felt like I was struggling, I'd send her a text and she'd talk to me. And you guys, it worked! I have been on top of things! And that four pounds that I "put on" last week? Yeah, gone. Woot!
I feel like this is one of those defining moments, that when I look back and see that I even though I messed up, I was able to get back up, I'll realize this was what made all the difference. It's not about being perfect, it's about being committed.
Or maybe I just feel great because my house is clean. That also might be it. ;^)
