Cereal

Today I miss cereal. I was feeding my three kids breakfast and I really wanted the cereal that my little one had. I looked at the box and it had sugar and wheat flour, two of the foods I can no longer have. As I read the ingredients, I reminded myself "not my food." It is days like this one which makes this recovery journey a little tougher. I have to form new habits as I walk this road. This morning I had oatmeal and to be honest, I didn't really want it. I put a banana in it though, which made it tasty. I'm noticiing that since I no longer eat sugar, things that are naturally sweet, like fruit, taste amazing! I do need to talk to Doc about other breakfast options so I don't get bored. Today is recovery day 8. I am still going strong, even though I am longing for some old foods. God is on this life change with me. He's the one who's been prompting me to make the change. It's not one I can make on my own, but one that I can through Him. "I can do all things through Christ who gives me the strength I need." ~Philippians 4:13 Have a blessed day!
