I woke up this morning hardly recognizing the man in the mirror. How does my hair get so jacked up in the middle of the night? I mean, really? (I wish I would have snapped a selfie) My hair was doing cool 80's style things as if I had joined A Flock Of Seagulls tribute band. It wasn't the wild hair, though. It was more the feeling of a completely rested body and mind. I slept for 11 hours straight!
Today was another vacation day for me since I hadn't planned on being back from Vegas until this morning sometime. I enjoyed a day off, relaxing--catching up on blog comment replies, emails and fixing the Vegas posts with the Tweet embedding issues.
I also started working on what is my next project, it's MP3's and Audio CD's titled: "Weight Loss Meditations." I have a lot of writing ahead of me for this one. With WLM, you'll be able to select the meditation that fits what you're experiencing and how you're feeling. Feeling empowered and right on track? There's a two minute motivational meditation for that! Are you challenged and feeling weak? There's an encouraging meditation for that, too! Are you feeling stuck and unmotivated? Listen to track 40! Did you just have an awesome weigh-in? Perfect, listen to track 13. Was it a horrible weigh-in experience? Track 17 will help you gain some perspective. Do you have a big dinner with family, friends or coworkers coming up and you're feeling anxious? Listen to track 52 on your way to the event. I plan on creating somewhere in the neighborhood of eighty different two minute messages, delivered in a calm and soothing way, designed to motivate, encourage and inspire in three different categories: Before Bed, First Thing, and Right Now! And each will have sub categories like the above descriptions.
I'm putting WLM ahead of book number two on my list of priorities. Right now, I'm pumped up about both, more than ever!
I had a wonderful weekend. I needed a good recharge! I had a good and relaxing day, today. I needed a day to simply chill. I made it to the store and prepared a wonderful dinner at my place. Usually we go out for dinner, but my goodness--I've had so many meals out lately, I lost count! So I prepared a gluten free pasta dinner at home. Amber enjoyed it very much! I am not gluten free (see Joseph's Pitas in my Twitter feed), but I do like to limit the gluten when I can. The dinner was nice!
I'm looking forward to getting back to the YMCA tomorrow and back into my work routine and everything else routine! Being into a different routine the last several days has shown me that I can break from the norm without breaking my commitment to taking extraordinary care. What I do in the foreground of my life can change often, what I do in the background with my food and exercise mustn't change. As long as I keep this perspective, I feel like I can take on the challenges along this road and have a decent shot of winning.
