More Not Less…

After reflecting on my day, the topic for tonight’s post came with great clarity – weight loss requires more not less. A weight loss journey requires more energy and joy. It requires an abundance positivity over scarcity. The thing is, weight loss is often associated with sacrifice, depravation, and stringency, and that’s a shame. I’ve come to grips with the reality that my weight loss journey will go on for the rest of my life, and there is no way I could be successful if I lived my life with such harsh restrictions.

Embrace more of the good in life. Carve out spaces for the good stuff, be present and seize opportunities for more good times as they come your way. That was my attitude today.

More great food to enjoy…

More chances to find beauty..

More time enjoying life…

Sometimes food can be substituted for other things. It can suppress unwanted emotions, it can distract from loneliness, it can provide temporary energy when we really need sleep. The more present I become in my journey, the more I learn about myself. I hope you are reflecting, and learning as you go. You are totally unique, and are worthy admiration and love.
