So when is this patience thing supposed to kick in anyway? I've lived in an immediate gratification world my whole life. Instant entertainment at the touch of a button, instant food in the microwave, even instant information with the internet. Maybe that's why I work in the beauty industry. Want to be a blond? Color your hair, bam, instant blond. Straight hair and want it curly, perm it, poof, curly hair. Everything in an instant. I even remember the question not being "What's for dinner?" but "What do you want for dinner?" because with a quick phone call, or drive thru, you could have just about anything.
Yes patience, you are so elusive.
At The Release Plan meeting yesterday, I heard someone say it's not a sprint. Too true my friend.
So here I go again, learning. I know I didn't get where I'm at with my weight in an instant, so it's going to take time and yes, patience, to get where I'm going. But the important thing is, that I'm going. Right?
Days off are hard for me. I just want to lay around and do as little as possible. But I'm learning to forgive myself for that and do whats good for me. Today I ate on plan. I did a tiny 12 minute workout. (Which I love doing) And I moved forward.
Forward is my favorite direction!
