Good morning, Cute and Perky People!!!
I don’t care when you’re reading this, I’m saying good morning today because I’m thinking about eggs!
Do you know why? Because I almost had a heart attack yesterday when I made my eggs. For real!!!
I was making me some scrambled eggs yesterday morning for breakfast. I’m just used to having eggs for breakfast. I was about to plop them from the pan to my plate when I looked down and said, “Oh dear God, they’re YELLOW!”
And in an instant, I was TOTALLY grossed out!
I forgot I had left the yellows in!! My hot friend only has me eat the whites, but I had decided I needed a cheat day.
It’s Thanksgiving week. I literally don’t remember my last cheat day, so I thought I might better have one. I know myself well enough by now to know I will have a total pig out if I go into that day feeling deprived.
And while I will relax on that day, I don’t want to be a total Ms. Piggy. OINK OINK!
I mean, it’s only been a few months since I totaled my car hitting that pig. I’m trying to wean myself away from all things piggy!
I digress…
Any way, I was completely and totally grossed out by those eggs. To the point I could not eat them.
And I remember a time where I couldn’t get those whites down.
And even though it’s a simple thing like eggs, I was reminded that if you stick with something long enough, it just becomes what you do.
And in the words of Mark Twain, “Habit is habit, and not to be flung out of the window by any man, but coaxed downstairs a step at a time.”
I didn’t start out loving egg whites.
I started out knowing I had a problem and diligently working to fix that problem.
But somewhere along the way, I crossed over. And those yellow eggs reminded me of something. Not only do I love what my healthy food does for me, I really love my healthy food.
Stick with it long enough and you will too.
