Day 05
I'm feeling anxious about completing week one. Well I mean I'm just really anxious about what's to come. This morning as I'm journaling I'm having all of these negative thoughts come up. There's a few of them so I'm just going to look at them one by one so that I can be aware of them, and question them Most importantly, I need to counteract that thought with a more encouraging thought. It's not always easy to do that when those condemning thoughts are knocking at the door of my mind. I'm no longer allowing destructive thoughts to sabotage my progress in this weight loss journey. The first thought that came to my mind was that "it's only a matter of time before you mess up". Yep, it is. It is only a matter of time before I mess up because you know what? Life isn't perfect. I'm not perfect. I will make mistakes. I will mess up, and when I do I have to tell myself my recovering perfectionist self, you will make a mistake. You will mess up. Okay so then what? The world is still spinning! What happens next depends on my next thought. So I fall off the wagon. That makes me a human being. Trust the process. True transformation takes place in the messy middle. So I am prepared to make a mistake but it's only a mistake if I don't learn from it. I'm going to choose to look at my thoughts. Journal my way through them. Forgive myself. Show kindness and compassion when I fall down. I'm going to choose to love myself back to where I need to be.
