Diet nightmare.

Thursday, May 10, 2012

So I had a dream I was standing in my kitchen preparing kale chips and talking to someone about my health goals. I was so excited about them and feeling proud. Then I looked down and my kale chips turned into hot dogs on buns with cheese oozing out of them. I froze and said, "How am I going to reach my goals eating this?!?" I felt despair because I knew I was gunna end up eating the hot dogs. Then I woke up. Like wtf?! I just thought it was a crazy dream to have and it is one I am gunna make sure doesn't happen. My kale chips are in the oven even now and there isn't a hot dog in sight. I even peeked to make extra sure. ;) lol.

    Dreams are how the subconsious organizes our daily thoughts and actions. Most likely you had something happen during the day that made you question your goals or your resolve to meet those goals. Your mind took that and showed you what you want versus what you think you want - and left it up to you to decide which is which. In the dream you 'knew' you were going to eat the hot dogs, but you woke up before you actually did eat them. That shows that while you've felt weak in the past, you're working on changing your habits and stopping yourself before doing something you shouldn't.

See this as your old self trying to remind you that it is still there, but your new self is allowing YOU to make the choice, not let the choice make you. The next time you lay down to go to sleep, remind yourself a few times that you are in control of your life and your choices. Tell yourself that you believe in the changes you've made. A few nights of that should help.

Best wishes for wonderful dreams!

    I have weird dreams, but never about hot dogs. For me that would have been a nightmare. I don't like hot dogs. Last July fourth I ordered a Hot Dog minus the meat. The lady charged me 1/2 price. Lol my husband ended up getting to eat it. She added chili! emoticon Just think you were aware of what you were eating even in your dreams!! You are making progress!

    Hahaha I had one of these last week! I was jogging, and I was so happy and proud of myself, then in my dream, I jumped a bit later, and I was like completely stuffing my face with brownies and fast food and all kinds of other stuff. Strange how our subconscious can do that. :-P
