Saturdazeeeee

 Today was a push that I was not expecting. I was expecting that I was going to be able to just do things normally. But today was hard. Harder than usual. I am avoiding my work like it is the plague and I know that I am making more work for myself. I am going to write down my feelings and then I am going to make some food and then start my work. As for my intrusive thoughts, I had a hard time staving them off. 

But we were able to succeed. We were able to say no to a sugary drink. 30 grams of sugar to be exact. 3 grams of sugar is equal to about 7 1/4 teaspoons of sugar. The recommended daily amount for a woman at 30 years old is 24 total grams of added sugar. An apple on average is 11 grams of sugar! The fruit is a silent killer in some cases. Apples are on the sweet side. Now I know why in some cultures fruit is considered a sweet treat. Because they are loaded with sugar. Not all, but mangoes and grapes for sure. Just something to be careful of and keep our eyes on, when it comes to the sugar intake. We are making progress everyday. My impatience will be my downfall if I can’t learn to be content with doing the work of TODAY and not the SUCCESS of tomorrow…which can’t happen unless I focus on today. 

Okay that is enough for now. I do have things that I need to do. So no more procrastination. Let’s get some work done and close out the day on a high note. 

For anyone else that is really fighting for their health right now, I am proud of us and I hope that we continue to make ourselves proud and push ourselves to be greater and not allow any triggers, bad news, unexpected outcomes, people, places or things give us an excuse to not be the AMAZING people that I know we are. Push guys! Not only can we do this, but we ARE DOING IT..and doing it NOW. 

With God, all things are possible. Let’s continue to strive for our lives. We’ve been under-achieving for a while now. The time is now guys! Now or never! Speak now or forever hold your peace.
