Good Morning… it is the First Day of The Rest of My Life!

First Day of TROML by Frank & Ernest (Credit: Bob Thaves), we all mess up sometimes!

First Day of TROML by Frank & Ernest (Credit: Bob Thaves), we all mess up sometimes!

Here I am starting all over again but not from the same starting point.

I have to laugh at myself when I read the Frank and Ernest (by Bob Thaves) comic posted here next to my desk.

“Today is the first day of the rest of my life. But so was yesterday, and look how you messed that up.”

It’s true I did mess yesterday up. I slipped and eat sugar. I don’t have it in my home so I used the excuse of being out of eggs and needed to stop at the convenience store for them. Who buys eggs at a convenience store? And sugar? I do because I am a compulsive eater and have a disease that will slowly and surely kill me sooner than I want to leave this earth.

That’s the first step and I think I am truly accepting it for the very first time.

My only goal today is to be abstinent and eat only three good meals with nothing in between.

The rest I am turning over to God who is my Higher Power (HP). In TROML as in any Twelve Step program, your HP can be anything you choose it to be or have none at all.

Remember we are all alike, we are all human beings.

I hope to be the best me today and be abstinent.

If you would like to journey through life with me, please join me.

Have a TROML Day Today!
