Thank you very much Sue!!!
That was a really lovely post, and I appreciate it!!!
I really also thank you for the idea of doing those other types of massage gigs, but I actually have no interest in doing work out of a hotel, and also not at nail salons or anything... I currently have my own room in a chiro office and it's working out fine.. Just need to keep plugging my own place on a regular basis, not just every four or five months.. it has to be ongoing....
I'm glad I'm your hero! LOL...
That is cool! You are mine!
Well last night, *again* I overate at dinner.... I'm really upset that my old habits are rearing up again...
But on a technicality, I am still calling it a success, simply because it was an S day, so you really can't fail... But my belly was still full from all the food this morning... I'm beginning to realize that, unless I have a stomach virus (and thank God I don't!!!) I must be eating out of sickness stress...
This is sortof encoded in my habit dna, I think...
Maybe some weird way, I feel that eating will make me better...
My plan today is to get a few more boxes of a variety of teas, herbal and regular, and just have tea when I feel the urge to indulge...
I'm sure that will be much more healing...
But at least I didn't night eat... I am relieved about that, because the old habits seem to travel in packs... and you know what it's like when you mess up on one level, it's just so easy to add insult to injury and mess up all the rules..
I'll be starting my part time job tomorrow, so that should be good as a mental picker upper, as it will get me out of the house and get me moving around a bit... Then I have two massages to give on Wed, and I hope I have much more energy than I do now!
The medicine is definitely helping though, as my bad headaches and low grade fever have subsided and now I'm just really congested and tired...
Blech... being sick always makes me feel like everything I do is useless, but somehow I'm still staying semi-positive... I think the arrival of Spring is just too great and is helping me there!
I'm totally missing exercise but have to just rest this out, as boring as that is... At least I have meditation... I will definitely meditate today after some hot tea.. I feel like I could sleep for 72 hours straight... LOL...
I think by the weeks end I should be ready to resume Yoga, or at least some light walking around... I hope both!!!
Well that's all from sick Deb!
Today is day three and I hope I can, at the very least, not eat seconds today... I'm really going to try!!!!!! I'm not giving up...
I can't believe how fat I feel from gaining back four or five pounds...
It is very noticeable how different I feel... Weird.. the old me could gain four pounds in a weekend and not blink, now I feel like I should be in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade!
LOL!!!!
NoS has truly changed my perception of myself, and what it feels like to be healthy... I hope that this next three weeks will help me lose that five pounds again and get back to real NoS habits!!!
I *HATE* these old ones and can't let them win over me and my new and better life!!!
Thanks guys for letting me think out loud and get pepped up to win!!!
Peace and Love,
