Friday Journal

Yesterday, completed my first 1 hour aerobic exercise session. So, according to Be Younger Next Year, I only have to do this 6 days a week for the rest of my like and all will be well. It's likely a coincidence, but my weight is also down to a level I have not been at for a while. I hope to complete a full 10lb loss by weigh-in on Monday.

From Permanent Weight Loss with Self-Hypnosis:

What are your most challenging situations? Take a moment to write down these challenges now. Exercise: My greatest obstacle to achieving and maintaining my ideal weight is ______________________________________ Now ask yourself, "What do I have to believe about myself for this to be true?" Remember to be gentle with yourself. This is not about judgment or condemnation, rather it's a self-exploration to help you uncover a deeper, more empowering truth.

My greatest obstacle to achieving and maintaining my ideal weight is eating late at night. Lately I've been doing carrots and celery with hummus. It turns out hummus has a lot of calories, but it does not have a lot of carbs, so it doesn't trigger a "mad search for sugary snacks" just before I go to bed.

For this to be true I need to believe that I am desperate for supportive emotions (read love) before I go to sleep. All things considered, not a big surprise. But may be instructive as a way forward. 

So my new goal is "Fit and feeling loved." F&FL. 

Honda VF 750C Super Magna V45 (1987-88)

"Honda designed the VF750C Magna as the ultimate cruiser by taking the basic concept of a cruiser and mounting a big, sporty engine. The bike ended up being very comfortable, powerful and stylish and it gave birth to an entire new concept of motorcycle, the power cruiser."

Still not sure if this is a dream goal, or just a silly fantasy. When I am debt free and fit, it will be time to sort this out.
