Appreciate Your Body!

Spend some time this week remembering what a miracle your body

really is.



It is through your body that you experience your life.

It is through your body that you get to smell the roses, play with children, taste great food,

connect with friends and family, learn new things, work, play,

listen to beautiful music, sing, dance, cry, Celebrate, make love, create, read, etc., etc., etc...

Thank your body for being there for you.

Remember that no matter

what toxins you've put in your body or how much you stuffed it,

starved it, exercised it or not, it keeps showing up for you every

day. No matter how unkindly you've spoken to or about your body it

has never left you.

The next time you take a shower try this:

As you wash each part of your body bless it and send it love. Speak

to your body as if you were speaking to a child or friend whom you

love unconditionally.

Bless and love your head, your eyes, your ears, your nose, your

mouth, your chin, your neck, your shoulders, your arms, and your

hands. Bless and love your back, your chest, your abdomen, your

hips, your genitals, your thighs, your calves, your ankles and your

feet. Bless and love your all your internal organs including your

heart, your lungs, your liver and your kidneys.

If you have what you believe to be excess fat on your body love it and bless it.

Thank it for having been there for you. Know that you created it to serve as a protective shield for you

to keep you centered, grounded and safe.

Now visualize yourself standing before a gateway on a beautiful hill or on the crest of a wave. Your entire life lies behind you and below you. See that every experience of your past is tied to you by silver and golden threads. Pause and review these experiences... all the joys and all the sorrows... all the adventures it took to bring you to this point... remember all your struggles with your body and your weight. Observe it all, bless it all, thank it all...especially the struggles.

Now untie the threads attaching you to the past, and with all the love you can muster, let your excess weight know that it is safe for it to go now.

Tell it that you are releasing it with love and gratitude, and you are now ready to learn new ways to love and nurture yourself. Release it all and bless it all.

In releasing your attachment to the past, you claim your power in the present.

Step through the gateway now!!

Make a vow that from this moment on you will treat your body with love and respect,

and that you

will speak only kind and loving words to and about your body!

Affirmations:

I am in awe of the miracle that is my body!

I love and respect my body!

My body is amazing!

I speak only kind and loving words to and

about my body!

My body rocks!

Live in Love,

Louisa

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
