Stating the Obvious

Ready?

Eating well makes your whole body feel better.

Obvious?  Yes.

Needs to be re-learned on a regular basis?  Yes.

• Not drinking wine is a sacrifice on the one hand but a bonus on the other.

• Not filling up on carbs is a sacrifice on the one hand but a bonus on the other.

I don’t need to go on but I will….

• Cooking porridge is a sacrifice on the one hand but a bonus on the other.

• Snacking on baby carrots rather than crackers is a sacrifice on the one hand but a bonus on the other.

• Drinking only plain mint tea in the evenings is a sacrifice on the one hand but a bonus on the other.

• Measuring anything at all is a sacrifice on the one hand but a bonus on the other.

And on non-eating topics:

Tackling that email/cleaning/budget/phone call/procrastinated work project is a sacrifice on the one hand but a giant life-giving bonus on the other.

So here’s to another day of more of the same.
