Day 2 of Faith and Form Raw Food Challenge

So,

How did yesterday go?

I know I have done this several times, but if it’s any consolation to you, it was still hard.

I have been moving houses and working a full time job in the middle of 3 kids transitioning to summer! Here is a moment of honesty to you all!

With all these going on, I have felt stretched and frustrated, weak and fatigued. It’s been hard. Consider also moving comes with extra budget items.

So when am looking at my food and I am trying to navigate everything the temptation to just not do anything and succumb to not starting was high. I had to surrender!

Surrender for me looked like; quick short prayer loudly and silently throughout the day. When I sensed triggers to unrest and frustration, I thank God he helped me to take a moment and breath.

My meals were green shake with spinach, mixed berries and flaxseed flour. And then an avocado and tangerines. I was so tired I was not super hungry in the evening but the temptation of emotional eating was high. So I took my sips of water and closed shop. I sang afew songs and my choir songs that we are working on for church were on replay throughout the night.

It’s the battle to surrender! The surrender that leads to victory!

What does surrender look like for you this week? Be bold and share with us in the comments….
