I don't know why some have it and some don't... but to have it and not care for it is not a good idea.<BR/><BR/>Now, the real challenge is to create an asociation between eating well and feeling great.<BR/><BR/>Anyways, you know you're very cool and shouldn't be doing such things as not loving yourself. What do you think your God thinks of you mistreating yourself? ; ) <BR/><BR/>love,<BR/><BR/>G.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3794109.post-1143906494878424092006-04-01T09:48:00.000-06:002006-04-01T09:48:00.000-06:00Ann, thank you!

Thank you. I've been a b...Hey, what great comments! Thank you. I've been a bit sick the last two days, and it's a good reminder about so many things. Slowly down, taking care of myself, appreciating those who care about me - care about me whether I'm chubby or slim - fancy that. :)<BR/><BR/>Yes, I do think self-love is important, and that we truly can't love others if we find ourselves not worthy or deserving of love as well. Meanwhile, I hope to give some more thought and prayer to the mind/body/spirit harmony thing...I think there's a piece I'm missing that I'll find important when/if I finally wrap my mind around it. Thanks for all the caring, and yes, Karen - I'll be wrapping a blanket of prayers around us both!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11863765417484706397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3794109.post-1143805698721042692006-03-31T05:48:00.000-06:002006-03-31T05:48:00.000-06:00my answer to nearly every concern: yoga.and, when ...my answer to nearly every concern: yoga.<BR/><BR/>and, when choosing to abstain from certain foods 'i take good care of my body.'<BR/><BR/>i am learning to practice self love. yes, i know that goes against what we are taught...embrace the greatness of Anne!Don't I Know You?https://www.blogger.com/profile/05137007683043826553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3794109.post-1143740944722959972006-03-30T11:49:00.000-06:002006-03-30T11:49:00.000-06:00Wish I could help, Anne. :)Wish I could help, Anne. :)Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15989935167850012642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3794109.post-1143688560892849292006-03-29T21:16:00.000-06:002006-03-29T21:16:00.000-06:00I hear ya Anne.

I realize there has been a lot going on in my life - a lot of messiness, a lot of pain, a lot of trying to reconcile body, soul and spirit. Of trying to deconstruct and reconstruct. The stress has gotten to me. But I also have to realize the meds haven't helped. Instead of being kind to myself I berate myself and then I eat more.... which, yep, leads to self loathing.<BR/>I just feel so out of synch lately and not so connected spiritually.I guess I'm just trying to do too much on my own. It's tough. But like you, I guess I need to quit beating up on myself and be still, accept me, turn over the driving to God and get back on the right track.<BR/>Guess we'd both better be praying for each other eh?<BR/><BR/>xoxoxgerbmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08334242165831708434noreply@blogger.com
