One Day at a Time
Sep 04, 2010
I think I'm truly learning the meaning of that phrase. I am in the pre-surgery phase of this journey and working hard on losing the 10% of my excess lbs required before surgery. It's not easy. I am confronted more and more with my food addiction as I attempt to change my eating habits and get ready for surgery. The one thing I know I must do to make the surgery successful is overcome my addiction. Otherwise I will end up one of those that gain the weight back, and that I definitely do not want! So, I am working on my issues and trying hard to live the adage "One day at a time". I try not to feel guilt for my mistakes in the past nor worry about the future. Sometimes I start thinking " Can I do this for the rest of my life?" But truly, what IS the rest of my life? None of us knows how much time we have here in this life. I don't know, when I get up in the morning, if I'll still be around to go to bed when night rolls around - none of us do. So all we really have is today - this moment, and that's all I need to work with - THIS moment! If I can just conquer my cravings and head/heart hunger for THIS moment, that's all I need to do. I'm workin' on it!
