I feel the void of not having Nicorette but it is bearable. I think I can live through this ordeal.
This whole week I had been stagnant. Not only that, my weight keeps on increasing. This is not a good sign.
I need to get into the groove. I need to insist that I eat OMAD. I need to have the same level of enthusiasm when I first start the program.
All it takes is subtraction.
- Use delay tactic
- Drink water
Carb is the culprit.
I need to get past the 2 weeks routine to make it a success:
- Eat OMAD
- Only eat carbs once a day
- No munchies
- Eat plenty of healthy fat
--------------
One big difference with me not taking Nicorette is I no longer Dream Walking. I am grounded where I am now.
Now i[t] (is) to stay grounded on my current issue. It's not that I cannot lose weight. It's that the weight creeps back in.
This week is bad. This is Nicorette cessation week.
I need to recompose. This is my battle and I intend to win it.
Things like discipline and will power come to mind.
I know the answer. I NEED THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND HUNGER.
-----------------
You know what Sarah? I really feel blessed. I got all the things I ever wanted. All I got to focus on right now is to take care of my diet and exercise. Everybody knows that those are the tickets to health and happiness. However how many actually commit to these two conditions?
If I just take care of my diet and exercise, I have it all. I will attain health and happiness. These are the only two requirements for success.
Rightfully I should go for broke to be healthy and happy. So what if I experience a little hunger? The single thing that determines my success in life is the ability to withstand hunger.
99% of the people don't know what they want. They know that money is important for them to buy things. However more money means more things means more happiness is not true.
What is it that the more I have the more happier I am? None. Beyond certain point, there is the law of diminishing return. So more or more expensive will not make you any happier. You may arrive at your destination with style but having more money for example does not make you much happier than if you have just the right amount.
So here I am having a little bit of money in the bank and I have my monthly sustenance. Definitely I am better off then when I have much money and I spend on expensive items. Definitely my 8 watches are much [much] enjoyable than owning one lousy Rolex.
I don't have much cash to spend. However I don't waste on things I don't need like excessive clothing and junk food.
Maybe I eat a good lobster and steak instead of spending the money on fucking or buying cigarettes like before.
Because I have less to spend, I don't waste my money unnecessarily. I BUY REAL VALUE instead of perceived value. For example I buy Dark Chocolate 70% than drink hot chocolate for almost double the value.
----------------
If I don't compare my material achievement with the materialistic people, I will definitely feel I am a sensible spender.
Let's look at a typical expenditure:
The bulk of it is housing, transport and food. I eliminated housing and car. So I only spend on food. I don't have debts and medical. I have enough clothing.
In my case it is food and savings.
I can definitely do away with taking handouts from Munek.
Even as low as RM300 a month of allowance, I am still better off than I was during my student days. Here the money is for small purchases.
I am not as financially secure as I want to be but nonetheless I am better off financially as compared to some people that I know.
Definitely I am better off than Amoi, Yusob and Jad. That if I start to compare.
If I don't compare, I am way better than those without any savings.
----------------
There is only one way around it. That is to not use money as the yardstick to health and happiness.
