I hope everyone had a great Sunday. I worked MediaShout at church today. That is the person who sits in the sound booth and makes sure that the words to the songs and/or the pastor's notes are up on the screen. My Pastor told me right in the middle of service that I was fired. It's a good thing that I am a volunteer and can't really get fired. It's a good thing that I have the best Pastor on the face of the earth and I know that he is a big ol' jokester and was just giving me a hard time.
I did my 30 minutes of Wii today. For those who don't have one..I promise It kicks your butt!! Today was 6 minutes of hula hooping--- whew!! I did 30 minutes of Wii every day this week except Monday and Saturday. I walked 30 minutes in the afternoon on Monday and I helped a friend move yesterday so I got at least 30 min of exercise every day this week. This is the beautiful park where I get the pleasure of walking-now you know why it helps with my anger and frustration-
The one thing that keeps coming back to me to share on this blog is the need to not beat ourselves up. We ALL have done it. Leanna worked all night on Thursday night and then had several meetings that she needed to attend on Friday. By the time she got done with the meetings, she was starving and tired. So..she stopped and got a Quarter Pounder w/cheese and some fries. It was the quickest, easiest way to get fed and it was comforting. When she got up to go to work on Friday night she made the statement that she had better not eat the rest of the night because she had blown it. Why do we do this? Why do we think that just because we eat one thing that isn't the "healthiest" for us that we feel the need to not only jump off the bandwagon but take off running down the street like we are being chased. I was listening to "You on a Diet" by Dr. Oz and I heard him say- It isn't the first cookie that you eat that's the problem- it's the 3rd and the 4th and the 5th. We eat a piece of chocolate or a cookie and think...well -- now we blew it..so I might as well get my fill so that I can start again tomorrow. Have ONE and then make a U turn and get back to eating right and if you have 3...then at the next appropriate moment...make a U turn. Like He said, If you are driving down the road and you miss your turn -your GPS doesn't start berating you and telling you that you are a failure- it just tells you the make a U Turn at the next appropriate time
