This has been a summer of ups and downs, challenges and successes. Mostly challenges. Some of the challenges have been physical. Hurt hip. Cranky shoulders. Blistering heat. Raging hormones. Yes, I will admit, I am at that later point in my life where the hormones all go wonky again for a while. More though, the challenges have been mental. I’ve had trouble staying on top of my food intake. Don’t get me wrong, I have good days. Heck, I have good weeks. Hence the successes. But I’ve had bad food days too. Very bad food days…and weeks. Where once there was discipline, there are now cravings that will just not be ignored. Where once it felt fabulous to know I’d gotten a substantial amount of nutrition in a reasonable number of calories, now it sometimes takes everything I have to not eat cookies all day long. Or Hershey’s Kisses....
