OK...sometimes I have to admit that I don't always listen to God when she speaks so she has to find another way to tap me on the shoulder. This morning she tapped on Rhonda's shoulder and and asked her to tell me to write a blog about this movement from fat to fit and from pain to pleasure and whatever THAT means.
I have OA osteoarthritis (that is new information). I need to lose 100 pounds (that is NOT new information). It's some thing I've "worked on" my whole life. I am reading "Women Food and God" by Geneen Roth and she says it's not something you can work on but in fact, the opposite if I understand her correctly. It's accepting what is. Pure and simple and figuring out what you really want when you pick up the Peanut Butter Cup and sitting with it and then filling the emptiness what what it wants instead of the quick fix of food. That being said I am still reading and it may be that this isn't pure or simple at all.
I have read so many self help books and diet books and spirituality books and all of them have said basiclly the same thing, in one way or another, so why will this one be any different? I have only read the first third and I am resistant...which usually means there is a reason I NEEED to look at what I am resisting (ohhh all those self help books speaking again!).
So if I got the message right I'm supposed to write out the journey. OK Go!
