we choose our ways

brightrosefoxI feel fat and blubbery.
However, I understand that this feeling was perpetuated by my eating a lot of junk food today: peanut butter cups, potato chips, pizza, and buttered popcorn.
So I shall drink a good deal of water and tea, go for a walk, perform some basic yoga poses and muscle-toning exercises, and not look at myself naked in the mirror.
And tomorrow morning I will wake up and feel better. I will eat something simple with protein, like bacon or an egg, or oatmeal with milk. Granola bars, even. Juice. Something to kick start the metabolism.
Shh, I want to lose six pounds. No, I don't want to. That little part of me does. That little part of me does not trust the flesh, traitorous flesh it says, you were never here before, go away.
But it is like the situation with the cats. A new kitten was brought home. The older cats, who have had the run of home and humans, feel threatened. Will they be forgotton and ignored for this new addition?
"I used to be skinny, now I'm curvy."
"I am thin but curvy."
"I have some curves."
I'll get there.
