Yesterday, Monday at work I had so much energy. I felt warm…ya know. I only had kiwi in the morning so I was concerned…will that be enough to hold me till lunch. It did. By lunchtime I was ready for my usual salad but not riddiculously hungry. I had lunch with some of my co-workers and no one questioned my eating :). Later that day a friend did my state taxes and I had to wait around for about an hour. Even though is was kinda chilly out and I just had on a light jacket, I felt like walking so I just walked all over her neighborhood…trendy lil neighboorhood with shops in DC…for the whole hour. I was so surprised. I wasn’t tired or rundown after. I could have kept walking. It was great just getting the exercise but not having to feel all stressed in the gym. I took her out to eat afterward and had a bowl of berries at Busboys and Poets and wedge french fries. I know…not raw, but I wanted the starch and I felt ok with eating it. I love my body. I love my journey. It’s my life to live and I’m living it with compassion.
Oh…and my friend who did my taxes says she can see the weight loss in my face. Yay! That was encouraging! It’s great to have people who are supportive of the positive, healthy changes in your life.
