It’s been such a busy couple of days, that I haven’t had a lot of time to notice what’s going on in my own recovery — other than that I haven’t had any issues. I’m not eating compulsively. I’m keeping up with my exercise. I feel great. I’m good. That sounds kind of boring, but to be honest, it’s a really cool blessing.
White knuckling one’s way through recovery is exhausting. There are times when you really feel like you’re holding onto abstinence with everything you have — but that amounts to trying to maintain a grip using only the tips of your fingers. I’ve come to appreciate the many days when this whole eating right thing isn’t a struggle. I experience this more days than not. Again, it’s a blessing.
So, right now I’m going to simply enjoy it and the way that it feels. Hopefully, I’ll be able to stack another day on top of it tomorrow.
I’m with Skye, boring is excellent!
Yay! In this case, boring is excellent! May you have many more such “boring” days!
