I know that much of the eating that I do is based on whatever emotional state I am experiencing at the time. Lately, I have felt down, stressed and overwhelmed by life. I can't exactly put my finger on what is causing me to feel this way, but I do know that feeling this way is a catalyst to make me want to eat.
Today I realized I have not been as dedicated to my daily interaction with keeping my thoughts positive like I have been. Keeping my thoughts set on the positive things in life definitely helps to keep me in a positive mood and mindset. When I am feeling positive, I am feeling good and happy and I feel like I can conquer the world.
So, I decided to really think about some of the things making me feel down, sad and stressed and realized that much of that stress is self-created. Things really aren't all that bad. It takes work everyday, but if you can keep your thoughts positive, you can keep yourself moving in a positive productive direction.
I know when I am feeling good about my life, I am feeling good about myself and that results in me wanting to eat right and exercise. Last Saturday I weighed in and I lost 4 pounds. That has made me feel so terrific! This weekend was a struggle, but because I allow myself too much license to eat. But I am back to eating well. This week, I feel I am doing great and I EXPECT another big loss on the scale. I know I can do this!
I can't wait until January 2011 to see the new ME!! No, I want to correct that....I can see the new me already. Now, I just have to make my outside shell reflect the person that I see and feel on the inside.
I want to share ME with the world! Here I come and I am smokin' HOT!

My mother always told me, if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all!
