Ruhu's Journal, 03 June 2013

Had a tough time again last night & am realizing that at least it's not the entire weekend that I really struggle but mainly Sundays in the evening after dinner. Considering I also struggle during the transition from traveling to being home, this makes sense. Now, I have to figure out what to do about it. Last night, I did my best to feed my hunger with healthy choices, but still ate more than I truly needed & not as mindfully as I'd like to, settled into a new book & watched another episode of Downton Abbey. But, today is another day & another chance to learn form the past, while moving forward on my journey toward healthy living & eating.

So, I'll start my day in prayer --

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And I'll remember all I have to be grateful for as I pray, breathe, post & express on this one day and through each one meal, bite, moment & emotion at a time. xoxox

Today is indeed another day, but you're right. You should find out what to do to fix the Sunday nights. Maybe change it all up and do somethign else at that time? A hobby? Go for a walk? Anything to avoid being in the situation where you catch yourself wanting food.

Glad you are figuring this out, that it's not the whole week-end you have to be on guard for, just the Sunday evening. Next you will have to figure out what it is about that time zone that bothers you but I know you will figure it out. Journaling and chatting to us, it will become apparent. I too love Downton Abbey, can't wait for the next series to come on air. Happy Monday.

I always chew gum when thous moments hit and it really takes the edge off. Hopefully you find something that works for you

Sundays nights are the worst for me emotionally too - seems the recognition of my 'weekend' is over and 'workweek' begins and I reflect and wonder 'what did I do with that gift of time' ~ good on you for recognizing it in yourself and sharing. Cool that it's not 'all weekend' because I know you dreaded weekends for so long. Now we just have to figure out getting through those 'hours' ~ maybe go to bed at 3pm? LOL.
