Hyper excited about my diet
I'm getting flooded with ideas about my diet decision. Part of it is the question we must all ask: Why? Why am I eating so badly? Why am I making so many bad sugar decisions?
I need to focus on where I want to be. On how good it will feel to be optimally healthy. I have to add a few things to my diet. Like good diet buddies. A lot of self-education. Read a lot of success stories. Hunt down really healthy and tasty food options to fill my fridge. And get excited about it.
Like other addictions, it's about taking your passion for something not good, or over-abundance of passion, or obsession, and re-direct your focus. It starts with this: When I want to do eat chocolate I will do What instead? Read a digestion article? Go for a walk and buy some celery at the local store? Take an extra Spanish lesson on my app? Reach out to someone on Facebook? (my main form of communication anymore). Look up more recipes? That's a good start to the list. I want to add play my ukulele and/or crochet, but those options are back home, and don't exist here. Unless I want to buy a miniscule hook and crochet... doilies.
You know, I bet the AA 12 step program would help too. One way or another, something in there is probably going to help me with inspiration. I will print out my inspirations, for my fridge. Starting with the question: Why are you opening this door?? Well, maybe I will be all nice and write out: I am stronger than I think. I am making healthy choices. My body is thanking me.
