Sunday was ok. I have SO much on my plate right now that I let thoughtful eating fly away, but yesterday I thought through my day in the morning and stuck to the plan.
Success at this thing is often just being thoughtful about what I’m doing and what I’m going to do. I’ll never (again) be an obsessive planner because it’s not good for me but thinking through food for a day is a useful tool.
The husband is away and that gives me both time to think and time to wallow – fine line.
SO…..
useful: planning not useful: obsessing
useful: thinking not useful: wallowing
useful: trusting not useful: ignoring the problems & hoping they’ll go away (that one just came to me)
I saw the phrase, “lives life lightly” the other day and now I think I know what it means.
So today I will live life lightly.
I’m going to let that phrase role over my tongue for a while – lives life lightly – that sounds right and good in these stressful times.
I’m struck by the notion of ‘thoughtful eating’ – what a great phrase. Today I am going to try and eat with some thought thrown in. Inspiring!

Millie, being a fan of alliteration, the phrase “Lives life lightly” makes me smile! And smiling is a good thing to help keep me on the path to fix my own alliterational (is that a word?) mess: Food, fitness, finance, and follow-thru, which are all (REALLY working hard to leave off the last obvious “F” word–the BAD one!) messed up. (Whew, that was close!)
