Goal Checkup!

A revisit of yesterday's goals:

1. Running frequency:  I planned another run via drop off by p.j. this morning, but realized I had no long running pants or shirts left to wear.  That's a potential problem of not planning well in advance, I suppose.  I was sad to miss driving out with my man.  I still have plenty of time to get in those runs this week, but do not want to put it off.  I plan to run tonight (can wear less clothes due to day time warmth!) expediting the process so as to be able to shower and be presentable in time for our core group, or tomorrow morning after washing running clothes tonight. Tonight I plan to wash running clothes.
2. Water consumption:  I got a full quart in before noon, but didn't get the Kerr refilled because the filtered water is so far away.  At least 50 feet.  Yeah, I know.  At about 6pm I gave up on a migraine battle and took a shot of Imi, which knocked me out for 12 hours, and I wasn't drinking while sleeping.  A quart is improvement, though, so today I will concentrate on not being grossly lazy; when the first quart is empty (it's over half way there now), I shall get up and refill it!
3. Eating:  Throughout the day, I was attentive to what I ate, avoided grazing and had regular sized meals, not going back for seconds.  I was fully satisfied and felt pretty good about how it went.  Of course, I'm sure that sacking out at 6pm helped out by shortening the day.  I'm instantly down 3 of those 5 pounds, so I have to assume it was largely (ha ha) water weight.  Today, I will keep up the intentional eating.
4. God date:  Yesterday I sacked out on the couch from the Imitrex shot, but when p.j. got me up to go to bed, I couldn't go back to sleep.  So I got up and chatted with God, read some Bible & study stuff.  I felt the reconnect, wow, and I don't want to drop that again.  I know He honors my time spent being in His presence.  Today we have a tight schedule, so if I don't have time for running and devotions, I will spend time with God and shift the running to tomorrow morning.

On maintenance of other goals achieved, I am still taking all supplements and am still off of Topamax.  I can't remember any other goals, so I think that's it. Journaling this stuff has been an immeasurable help.  Oh yeah, and I have kept up my unspoken/unwritten goal of journaling through this process.  I have been praying about all this for so long, in little snippets here and there and in longer bouts.  Sometimes I am really surprised that God wants to change my character to deliver something good into my life, rather than just zap me and make me better.  That shouldn't surprise me by now!  I love losing the old me, whom I am leaving behind, and I embrace the renewed creature I am (very slowly) being changed into!
