Taking Control of my Weight ~ Day 2 Observation Continues

First, I think a bit of explanation about what you can expect from following this blog. There is a gazillion dollar industry full of diet experts and gurus that can and will tell you the nutrition and physicality of achieving a healthy weight. That's NOT what I'm going to talk about. I'm going to talk about MY experience and MY energy blocks and hopefully you will see something that inspires or enlightens you in your journey. I'll be talking about the ENERGETIC reasons behind unbalanced body. Not the specifics of calories and exercise. That said... Let's pull the curtain back and explore what's REALLY going on.

Dinner last night. (It's important to note that I'm aware I can watch my fave TV shows On Demand later at my convenience.) My resolve crumbled as Grey's Anatomy started and I migrated with my plate to the TV tray that stays up by my recliner. Oh. Wow. I just realized the message of having a TV tray (complete with place mat) permanently out and waiting for me to eat in front of TV. Hmmm... I can take some solace from the name, "TV Tray" in that apparently I'm not the only one that has this behavior. Good! Lessens my guilt ever so slightly. I'd tell you about what dinner encompassed, but let's just say I really didn't pay much attention. But it wasn't all that pretty... and it might have involved some less than healthy Better Cheddar smoked sausages.

Conclusion... Well, I've put in place some mechanisms that make it easy to keep doing what I'm doing, like keeping the TV tray out instead of having to hassle with getting it out, putting a fresh place mat down and missing some of my TV show. Is it bad to eat in front of the TV show? Not necessarily. BUT if I don't want to continue to look and feel like I do, then I can't keep doing what I'm doing. Putting the consumption of food, which is a critical mission to my health, behind a fictional world (TV show) probably won't assist me in achieving the balance I want for my physical body.
