Eat to live, not live to eat
I am sitting here at work wondering if I will ever get to the point where I eat to live and not live to eat. Yet again, there is another Deweys birthday cake in the breakroom right now. It is for April's birthday's. I walked back there knowing there was cake and that it was probably Deweys, only to get some water to take some medicine with. I started craving that cake the minute I opened the door. Then to see all of my coworkers sitting around enjoying it made it that much harder. When does it get easy? Does it get easy? It is times like these that I can do nothing but pray and lean on God to give me the strength to beat this temptation. I have had a great 2 weeks. Eating pretty good and bumped my exercising way up. I am feeling really good. Most people are finally telling me how they can tell that I have lost a lot of weight. We go for our last visit this week with the nutritionist and psychologist before our surgery.....things are looking good BUT I realized that I am still weak when it comes to food. Well maybe I shouldn't say that I am weak. I was able to leave the breakroom without touching that cake and that is a huge milestone for me but my brain is still telling me how much I would love to have a piece of it. And I'm not the least bit hungry either. Don't get me wrong, I am extremely proud of how far I have come but I truly pray that one day I will get to the point where I eat to live and not live to eat!
