I am watching my favorite show -- Biggest Loser. Even though I realize "reality" tv is not REAL, this show inspires me. It inspires me to go to the gym, to think about what I am eating, to determine what I want out of my life.
So many things are in our control, so many are not. Why not work towards controlling the things we can fix. Wow, what a difficult concept. :) What can I control? I can control what I am eating, I can control how much exercise & sleep I get. Ok, some might call me fiendish (thanks Melvina), some might call me a maniac (thanks Charise) but really, I am just me. Slightly obsessive, but determined.
Today was a milestone day - I officially weigh what I did when I found out I was pregnant with Noah -- OVER three years ago!!!! I haven't seen "onederland" in over 3 years!!! When I was in high school, I thought weighing over 150 was DISGUSTING -- now that is my WW goal weight. Is that my final goal? No! I have many of those, but small steps.....
In this journey I am on, I have found support in many places (some unexpected). I thank everyone who is putting up with me and my slight craziness about the gym. What is crazy? Going 7 days a week, sometimes twice in a day. Not biggest loser crazy, but pretty nuts for a girl who has two kids, a full time job and a two hour commute each day. Why do I do it? Because I am inspired! I can do this ~ maybe not in 17 weeks like the "real" people on tv, but in my time, on my pace.
Long term goal: to inspire others to do the best they can, everyday for every reason!
Be back soon -- hopefully sooner than months from now!
Yay! a new post :-) You go girl, the great thing is that when you are inspired by others, you in turn become an inspiration! Love u lots and keep up the great work! See you Sunday for Bay to Breakers!!!
