QSM: Summer 15 Challenge – Week 2

So I actually had 2 good days in this challenge last week.  ONLY 2 you ask?

Well, yeah – and I’m proud of that.

Considering I’ve spent about two decades just shoving food into my mouth without thinking about WHAT I’m eating or WHY I’m eating it or HOW it’s affecting my body, 2 good days in one week is pretty encouraging!

Food Journaling is going to be my most powerful tool.  As I’m working through lessons at The Lord’s Table, it is helping me start to think differently, but I also have to start acting differently to support those changes.  Food Journaling will be my key.  My water intake is moving up – slower than I expected – but growing, and that’s good too.

My first physical therapy session is TOMORROW and I hope that I will be able to find some ways to move without making my ankle swell up like a balloon!!!  I spent Saturday morning at my nephew’s ball game – walking back and forth with the girls either to the bathroom or the concession stand – and by the time I got home, my ankle was sore and swollen.  I hadn’t worn my elastic wrap because it was in the washer – but wore it the rest of the day and overnight.  I hope to be very proactive with the PT and be able to MOVE and add that to my Health Regimen.

It really does take body, soul, and spirit to accomplish GOOD HEALTH, and that’s my goal…

So my weight for today is:

256 lbs (+1 lb)

sigh.  I obviously need more than 2 good days, and I didn’t stay up with my water over the weekend, so that’s something I have to change.  It makes a difference that I have some accountability, and I’ll be more conscious about my choices this week…
