As many of you readers may know, my wife and I have been on a bit of a travel journey. For the past year we have been traveling with the Broadway Tour of Cathy Rigby is Peter Pan. We have been fortunate enough to get to go to different cities across america, see the sites, taste the food, and all while being a part of an amazing show that brings joy to some many different people. Unfortunately that journey is about to end. Our last week is here in the wonderful city of Boston and this weekend is our last four shows. After that we start a new chapter in our lives. It's going to be interesting and an adventure that's for sure.
Because of the show coming to and end we went and treated ourselves to a little bit of carbs this morning. We would see donuts all over the country, but using all my will power, would often not participate in their tasty trouble. This morning in honor of our final weekend we went and got some coffee and had some donuts and it was great.
I share this with you because I think that there is two parts to eating well and healthy. One is to make good choices and to be aware of what you are putting in your body and it's effects on you, but the other is to be able to enjoy food they way we should. That doesn't mean over eating, or going crazy with the carbs every other day, it means taking the time to say, "I am doing pretty good and I can enjoy myself today." This is a lesson I am constantly relearning at this phase in my diet. I often times have such a fear that after losing all my weight that I will fall off the wagon and gain it all back that I forget how far I have come. Its important to know that We are in control of what we eat.
All that to say, yeah, I had some carbs today, and I earned them. Tomorrow, we keep moving forward.
