Lenten sacrifice

Mar 09, 2011

 Cleopatra_Nik inspired this blog entry. 
Today's Ash Wednesday and I'm actually proud of how well I've accomplished all my spiritual & physical goals. I ate no meat for the one meal I'm allowed but had egg substitute, cheese, and shrimp. Plus broccoli & cheese. Had a protein drink around 4p. Had under 700 cals today with 64 oz water! I gave up whipped cream as my sacrifice and tried adding more positive thoughts towards others - that one was harder than I expected as  I had this one client's parent who was very aggressive and angry towards me and not responding to my redirection, so felt kinda lost for part of the session but got it under control by the end. This would have been one of those days needing a beer but I didn't. Probably won't give up alcohol forever, but at least not drinking this year. Funny that this 40days coincides with the biggest changes in my process. May be a very happy Easter for me. Hopefully by then I'll be on semi-solid foods and I could have ham then!
Take care all who read this!
