Day 14: Feeling Proud
I made it, and what's more I am over my massive fear of dying I posted about earlier. I am not saying I have not done some damage, but I am going to the doctor and then going to celebrate my bravery - no matter what the results -- with a spa day or some other frivolity after I fess up to the doctor. All my symptoms are pretty much gone already, and I have been waking up earlier, sleeping straight through the night and have NO idea what the HECK to do with all this free time on my hands ... I mean ... I am like a power house. Today, I made coffee for me and my house guest, worked out, did three loads of laundry, ironed linens and clothing, changed the bedding, watered plants, hid eggs for my daughter and my nephew, colored eggs, made a huge dinner, put laundry away, bleached some pillow cases that had turned pink from being washed with a red blanket, worked on my daughter's Spanish project, made cupcake liner garlands, did my nails and washed all the dishes by hand. My house is spotless and I swear I am not tired. I had help, but I do take most of the credit.
I had the urge a little when others were sipping on their champagne cocktails, but I ate candy instead. I don't ever eat sweets because nothing makes me happy as the pastries I grew up on in Argentina, but today I allowed myself some sugar because I don't want to start depriving myself of things that will help me feel like I am not only giving things up.
And here is the absolute cherry on top of the cake. I lost 10 pounds already. I eat so much junk food at night when I drink. Now I don't.
I want to hang on to this feeling and never let it go.
Thank you to those who calmed me down so much this week. I am here because I need all the support I can get even on a great day like today.
