Blog: Stating my Intentions
So yeah, the main thing that I think I'm messing up is food and overeating. I remided myself yesterday the bad way that overeating on good food ends up to eating any food. I ate some junk, not a huge amount, and overate good food. Rats! Part of my lazy attitude on food came I think from trying to follow the Law of Attraction and just believing that my good body is on it's way and if I focus on that then other things will fall into place. I was eating nutritously; this is a good thing. LOA says not to restrict, think about what not to do. Instead think about what to do. A fine line to be sure. Overeating is still something not to do. I need to have a guideline, and maybe work on framing later, but a guideline of how eating will work for me. Unfortunately part of this is restricting or keeping myself from eating b/c that's where I've been messing up. It is helpful to remember that I enjoy the light healthy feeling when I'm not eating or eating light. When I start eating, however, I need to force myself to stop until that's a habit. The relaxed attitude does end up hurting me there. Ack, just finding my way.
So this is my main task for today. I am eating light. It's almost noon already; I've only been drinking my Miracle Greens drink which should do great on nutrients and light on calories. I already have Thai food for lunch planned. I'm not sure what for dinner yet, but whatever feels right, and hopefully I will eat light.
That's all for now...

Hey Ruth,
here is a link that may be of interest to you, if you have not read it, yet.

It is from the Law of Attraction forum and Invincible began it for me, when I was attempting to fast, a while back.
I think that as you concentrate on your 'perfect' body and decide to eat what is healthy for you, finally your body picks up on that and doesn't go for the other stuff. As well as eating a lot of food (which I can tend to do), I think that if we concentrate on feeding our body for Energy, as opposed to feeding it just on the strength of, we begin to get to that point.
In this moment, I have not succeeded yet. I was fasting and a few days, it seemed to just become a 'low calorie' diet, yet I released 17 pounds. I have eaten the past few days like a person who has not eaten a decent meal in a very long time. I could say I defeated my purpose, although I did not. I just strayed a bit.
I am getting on track to where I want to go. You can also, just don't be hard on yourself. Accept it and move forward.
Have an Awe-filled day, Ruth!
Peace,
Beth

Beth,
Aren't you sweet, helping me out in my publicly announced area of shame! Yes, it's true, I know I'm not supposed to say it but having a response lets me realize that some of that is there b/c I'm frustrated over it! But I was also hoping some LOA people would chat about it and help out. You said something that may be key for me about eating for energy. Although I believe I'm sending out vibrations that are all about attracting healthy things, I'm still big into taste and enjoyment of it and attracting things that taste good means I have lots of things to taste and eat. Good and then again, maybe attracting the idea of tasting have given me lots of opportunity to do exactly that! Time to adjust...
I am very very grateful that I have found enjoyment in eating healthy foods; if they were gross, I wouldn't be doing even that well I think! But perhaps now that I have some of that down, it will help for me to refocus on attracting the desire to wisely stop eating when my body things it would feel better to not eat more... I'm still not sure exactly how to frame my mindset for that... this wording (and therefore the feeling/intention behind the wording) feels awkward. Any ideas, let me know; tossing those around helps, I think. I think tonight my visualization will focus on the moment after eating enough to be satisfied and enjoying that while realizing that in that moment I should be focusing on how good my body feels when it is lighter on food. But that is the truth. I know that it feels better to eat lighter; just my tastes have won over my physical intuition.
Anyway, it's a work in progress. All I need now is that $100,000 for grad school!!! :-D
Thanks, Beth. C U 'round.
