Sunday morning roll call. Hope you are all very much having a great spring day! Or the beginnings there of!
I've been thinking this morning. Friday night I had a few beers. They were so relaxing, we were at friends and just sitting out side...My very favorite, a couple of cold ones and being outside....relaxing. The beers do not settle well with my stomach, and the next day I suffered so much indigestion. I went through this recently at another time. Then my mood was so disrupted. Even though the beer is a very low carb one, and so enjoyable, my indulgence led to a very unhappy with myself next day. I think I am learning about this. It could have happened by over eating whipped cream, or over doing it on a certain trigger food, the next day I have the hardest time with my emotions.
This is good, this is really really good. Because it's painful and pain really does inspire change in me. Change is what leads to success for me. When I change my behavior and relationship to indulging, or over doing anything, by stopping within the balanced zone, I continue on in a happy place...But when I cross my own line, I pay emotinally every single time.
Something to really add to this is I am all or nothing. Balancing my behavior so that I don't over do and feel terrible is something I've been banging my head against for 6 mos at least.
I am in ketosis, I didn't hurt that part of it, but I feel like I went too far for me. Today is a new day of balancing emotions. My eating has only gotten better and better over these last 20 days. I am so grateful for this.
