How to handle an irresistible urge for dessert

Gene Wilder quote — Screen shot from LinkedIn a couple months ago..

Last night after a simple, and solo, dinner – Cheryl’s at Disney, Chapin is in San Francisco – i had an almost irresistible urge for a sugary dessert.

Since i already had my one weekly allotment on Sunday night, i knew this was a battle i needed to win.

i also knew that if i could distract myself through some activity that would put time between dinner and the urge, that i stood a fighting chance.

It worked.

i’m telling you though, when you’re alone, tired, and feeling the urge, there are a million reasons why “this time won’t hurt, it’s just a small exception”.

The health of our body has consequences

The health of our body has consequences.

It sounds obvious, but it’s our job to manage our health.

Neglect one area, the other four suffer.

Enhance one area, the other four benefit.

Your superpower is vibrant health

Buddha quote — Recent screenshot. The quote is most likely from Jack Kornfield, a Buddhist teacher.

Don’t let the enemy, which is time, convince you to relinquish it.

It’s the ultimate betrayal.

Don’t let your greatest asset, time, lie dormant.

Remember yesterday when you said, “Tomorrow.”

i’ll start tomorrow.

You are poised for sub-seven

Running pace for one mile — The 1600 meter time was 7:20. The 6:36 was for 1200 meters. Notice the 3 consecutive laps with negative splits.

Heads up, this will likely be confusing to non-runners. Sorry.

Here’s the breakdown of your 7:20 mile yesterday…

0:56 0-200 meters
1:56 200-600 meters
1:55 600-1000 meters
1:49 1000-1400 meters
0:44 1400-1600 meters
7:20 final

Important to note: your combined 400 time for your first and last 200 meters was 1:40.

Also note your final 200 was by far your fastest at :44 seconds.
