Well, after about a full week - I'm back. I have not been being very good with my eating. But I don't think that there will be any issues with getting enough exercise or drinking enough water. I'm sure you have all heard of the flooding here in Iowa. My family has been safe, but I've spent a great deal of time helping out with the sandbagging and now the clean-up. I'm tired.
I have not eaten well this last week. Although, I do find myself making better choices than I used to. The bread is not an issue - I always remove the bread from anything like burgers, etc. But things like potato salad and fruit salad have been problems. I find that I avoid sweets somewhat naturally anymore. A good sign, I believe.
I'm going back to a somewhat normal schedule tomorrow. So I'm anxious to get back on track. I have not weighed in for over a week. I decided I'm not going to until Saturday morning. I know it's going to be bad and I just don't need that right now.
Before this flooding happened, I was in a funk for about a week or so. I think that I will take this opportunity to recenter myself; to be thankful for everything I have - my family and friends are all safe and things can be replaced; to be both awed and humbled by the tenacity and strength of Mother Nature; and to make a permanent change about my connection and relationship with God.
Hope everyone is good - I'll be catching up on all of your journals in the next couple days. I have tried to chime in a few times, but never had more than a few minutes at a time in the last week. So, you all will be hearing from me!!!
I've missed ya'all!!!

So glad to see you back. What a great person you are for helping those in need. The food issues will work themselves out. Just take a little time to rest and then get back to it. God bless.

potato salad and fruit salad..*Sigh* will they ever get onto our eatable list?? Welcome back and thank god for heroes like you in America. Experiences like this really do help a person reevaluate how they perceive life. You become so thankful for simpler things and want less. My mom always say find the good in everything, even the bad and you obviously have. Well done

I'm glad your family is safe. Don't worry about the eating. Isn't it great when you find you naturally make better choices even when you're not trying. Fruit is a great thing to "splurge" on, just keep it in moderation. :)
