This is another encouragement to journal daily. This time we are asked to reflect on the previous day's events (or it could be that day's events if you are journaling before bed). Journal your reactions to events throughout the day. What things could be improved upon? What went well? This is a personal assessment, so you need to be brutally honest with yourself. How else would you make changes if you cannot acknowledge the issues?
The journal question:
What bad habit did I curb today?
Actually, this is a timely question. I have an underlying medical condition that has forced me to eat little food and careful with what I am able to eat. I cannot eat full portions of food in one sitting anymore. I tested positive for COVID mid-November; it was a mild case. One of my symptoms was a lack of appetite. My already small portions of food became non-existent. Knowing I needed to eat something, I forced myself to eat every now and again, but I still as not eating anywhere near enough. When I tried eating, I was full after two bites with some foods, so I was looking for anything at all that my body would let me keep eating more than two bites of. Unfortunately, this meant reverting back to old eating habits (lots of sugary items, junk food, etc.). Last night before bed and when I got up today, I told myself I was going to get back on track on with my specialized diet. Two months after COVID and I am only now feeling as if I am back to normal with the underlying medical condition, so getting back on track is more important than ever.
