Hello ladies and gents! Welcome back. Sorry I’ve been a little M.I.A. for a bit. But here I am. So A couple blog posts ago I wrote about being on a journey. Whether its a stop smoking, weight loss, or to find yourself. Whatever it maybe people say (or at least to me) is just start.
That is exactly what I did today. And let me just say how difficult that really was. (laughing) So I have been Plant Based for almost 2 years. Not gonna lie theres been times I have had something that wasn’t but for the most part everything I eat is Plant Based. I don’t beat myself up about it. Sometimes if I’m at a doctors appointment that lasts all day yes I’m going to go for convince.
I know the critics would say ” No you should just meal prep or pack a lunch” but I say easier said then done. When you trying to drive almost 2 hours to see a doctor for a 45 minute visit, then depending on the time it can be another 3 to 4 hour ride home in traffic.
Listening to Barney the Dinosaur to and from, repeating yourself about your son’s diagnosis for the hundredth time, white knuckle driving so you both get home safe. I think I have to pick my battles. But I still do the best I can. Can I do better? Of course who can’t.
But majority of the time for me isn’t the food, it’s the exercise. Me myself its not that I don’t like to do it because once I do I’m fine and becomes a routine. It’s getting motivated to start. I don’t know what it is and I know they sound like excuses but getting up at 3 am don’t help but I know I need to push myself to do it.
So I did! Started today and once I make that part of my routine I’ll be good (as long as the weather cooperates). So I’m hoping to update you more in the coming weeks on my progress.
I would love to hear about you and your journey, or if you have any feed back for me. So until next time I hope you have more lemonade then lemons!!
When life gives you lemons
