Yesterday did not disappoint!  

Fun, challenging, beautiful day ... revived me in so many ways and I'm grateful I payed attention.

Unfortunately, slept like CRAP last night.  Too much caffeine in my lunch iced tea.  Today may be a struggle (already is!).

Tonight I need to be diligent in practicing my simple disciplines, particularly eating healthy and eating enough - not too much.  When I'm tired, I let my guard down and all sorts of thoughts ... justifications ... excuses ... enter my head talk.  

I mentioned I struggle with "on" "off" concept - all or nothing.  I've had a few good days of eating well and already feel positive changes (duh ... why don't I do it more often ... so simple).  Feeling that turn in the right direction feels SO GOOD!

Except Friday is coming.  I have a wine tasting followed by dinner at a new Italian restaurant.  (Too much) Wine + lots of carbs = feeling crappy.  Canceling on good friends is not an option.  And my direction can turn again - down the feel blah road - and the turn-around in a better direction feels miles away and all uphill.

So what do I do???  Can I moderate what I eat and drink??  I don't know.  And it's that head game that can steer me off track potentially.  Crazy????  Yep!!  THIS is what I need to change.  One evening shouldn't scare (and worry) me or throw me off track for days or take up so much head space. 

Trying one step at a time.  First step - do not let the "thought" of Friday (and a tired, long day at work) give me reason (excuse) to crap out the rest of the week.

How long should you try?  Until.  - Jim Rohn

 Well, enough rambles this early morning.  Off to run folks.
