Holiday Cheers and Message.....
At first I thought this would be sick and mean......
Most of you are in WL mode.....and your being tested over the Holidays to stay on track......So after some thought......I'm thinking this is a good time to make this message.
This is a similar message to Elina's
In WL or Maintenance we still need to be involved in life and the world around us. We made the decision to have WLS to improve ourselves and be more involved in life. The world is not going to cater to our needs or lifestyle.
We are the ones that need to integrate and keep a broad view of the world around us......Everybody is not like us and our issues with food and eating, just like we don't have issues that others have.....
So my message is that you can't shut yourself off to what goes on outside your own comfort zone. Life goes on around us and temptations are always there. If you watch TV for five minutes.....your gonna see food, and most food commercials are foods we need to limit. You can't walk downtown any where in the world without walking past food and restaurants. 90% of a grocery store is not good for us.
Some of us are in professions that expose us to elements that are not part of our new normals....but we need to work with it and understand those things are always going to be there.
Here is part of a promotion I did for my business......Cake is not a normal part of my new life....but Cake is part of life and what were exposed to.....Cake is not going away anytime soon. Cake is just one example.
We need to embrace and integrate to all that goes around us........
Happy Holidays !
