Clear Statements, Walking the Dog, Eating Well

Without much effort, gently but surely since the summer I have dropped almost a stone. I have not really put much effort into it and have not obsessed over it either.

When I reached the highest weight I have ever been; one stone and a bit more, heavier than my ideal weight, I stayed there for a while and then after summer was over I said "This is it, I now intend to be 10Kgs lighter." And left it at that.
My eating habits changed without much effort, and decided to stick to a 'native' diet; fruits and nuts for a while, with the occasional rice and veg and fish or some meat, always with coconut oil. To my delight the weight started to drop. Sometimes I would have a slice of sourdough bread with raw cheese in the morning.
Two months later the dog came to stay with me and changed my routine drastically. Two hours a day of gentle walking, I have not done that in a long time. A few more pounds went easily.
Then Xmas came and I indulged a little. I was not bothered too much, but some bloating and feeling very lethargic made me rethink about indulging for too long.

I started doing acupuncture for some niggling knee pains, it has taken a while to kick in and now it seems to be making a difference. Then three days of recovering from eating something that caused me to be really ill gave it the last blow. I went on the scale two days ago and I was not sure it was correct. I had dropped another four pounds and my weight is almost where I was more than ten years ago. I was so surprised I tried a few times to make sure that the scale was working.

So I think it was not just one thing but a combination of all of these factors that is helping me to find my natural rythm and makes me want to follow my instincts.

I set an intention and as there were no obstacles in the way, the body followed the orders and made me want to do all the things that would allow that order to be fulfilled quite effortlessly.
I am thrilled!

So now it's time to make other clear intentions to achieve all the other things that have been waiting in the pipeline.

Have a wonderful clear 'Intention Day', today.
