Neurology appointment tomorrow

Don't let one cloud obliterate the whole sky.
- Anais Nin


So I picked this little word of encouragement because I have hit a bump in the road with my health yet again, and I know that there are so many things happening in my life, the stress, work and all kinds of other stuff, and well lately it has taken a toll on me.  I have talked about it in several of my posts, but I am not going to let this one "CLOUD" rain on my parade and stop me from all of my dreams. There are so many things that I want to do, and I am not a quitter. I AM A FIGHTER! I AM A SURVIVOR!!
I have been thinking about so many things in my life, and all the things I usually do when I am stressed & eating being one of them, and to be honest, I have had some of these Jolly Rancher gummies that my friend "Sweet" Andrea has been sharing with me! I figured if that is the worst that I do, I'm rocking on this LIFESTYLE CHANGE!!!

Today in the car on the way home, I had realized that I had forgotten to take out meat for dinner, so I couldn't decide what I wanted & Lexi said "Mom, you can have some left over pasta" & I said "NO" Although I did think about it, because boy would I Love a big bowl of pasta right about now, that's how stressed I am!!! Then I thought, and contemplated having a bun with my burger since I defrosted 2 burgers. And then Lexi said, "Mom, one bun will not hurt you!" I said, "YES actually it will, I can not have it right now, not while I am this stressed out!! So, I had my 2 burgers with cheese, on my plate and then I ate a bag of steamed broccoli! YUP! I guess after only eating an apple with peanut butter today I was more hungry. I'm hoping that the stress level will go down a bit after my appointment tomorrow. But I did NOT Mess up my program! I AM SO PROUD OF ME!!!!


I am really stressed about tomorrow, and going to remember this prayer that I always say!!
"LORD HELP ME TO REMEMBER THAT NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME TODAY THAT YOU AND I TOGETHER CAN'T HANDLE!!!!" This prayer gets me through my darkest days!!



Ok, so I'm getting off here early tonight, have stuff to do to get ready for tomorrow..

Hope you all have a great night!!

Godspeed!
