I don't give myself credit for being "tough". I have more in me than I think I do - for example, I was doing a cardio workout today, and started to quit at 30 minutes, thinking that was enough. Instead, I kept going, and lasted through 45 minutes!

I also feel much better when I make right choices. I don't need to cave to "peer pressure" when eating out with friends, I can make choices, and have to take responsibility if I really want to lose the 10 pounds I"ve put on. I like the feeling of being in control, instead of giving in to a temporary whim.

Today is the start of a new life for me. I have desided I am worth saving and that my body is my temple, security, space, connection to earth and I must take care of it like u would a new born baby. The way we carry ourself is a true reflection of how we feel about the person we have become and the mistakes we have made.
I choose today to free myself from past mistakes and forgive myself as I would for anyone in my life. This will allow all the weight and baggage to fall away. Thank you for listening, I wish everyone health and wellness

This week I learned that it's all about choices and I am in control of my choices. Sometimes I will make good choices and sometimes I will make not-so-good choices and that's okay as long as I am ready to accept the consequences of my choices. I thinks that's an awesome lesson!

This week I realised that, no matter how much I eat clean, I need double my resolve to stay on track when I have PMS! I kept to clean eating this week, but boy was it tough fighting the urge to eat sugar & carbs all week!

I've learned that I can do it.

All my life I would set a goal but then never achieve it - basically because I wouldn't put in the effort, as though it was too difficult so why bother? This week I've realized that I can do whatever I set my mind to doing. I've been setting smaller, attainable goals - and reaching them. It feels so good and I am so proud of me.

Right now the world is my oyster!

This week I have learned that I need my support system, and adding to it makes me more successful. I am coming off of a weekend spent with good friends and inspiring women. Meeting Tosca and her team at the ASF helped me refocus. Meeting them showed me that I do not have to be in this alone. I can see my future successes more clearly now.

This week I have learned to stop comparing the way my body looks to other people. I am happy with the way I look. I eat clean and excersise on a daily basis; and sure, there are things that I would like to tone up a little. If there is one thing I have learned, is that we are all different. No body is exactly the same....so to compare myself to others is like comparing apples to oranges. To be happy and healthy is all that REALLY matters!
