See Yourself Slim...No Really!!

This is the weight mirror
photo, I really don't look
this good, but I will!!
So at My Release Plan they shared this website where you can download a picture of yourself,
Put in how much weight you want to lose,
And it adjust your picture showing you at that weight!!
It's awesome!!
It's at http://makeovr.com/weightmirror/
You've got to try this!
I look fantastic!
Gonna put that picture on my wall so I see it everyday!



Hitting the work outs pretty hard,
But I still feel stagnant,
Really want this next progress picture to reflect it,
But I must be patient,
It is not a race,
This is a lifetime........
Blah Blah
Who am I kidding?
I want to look like that picture NOW!!!!!

Boy, do I need to find my ZEN!

Starting All Over......

I feel like I'm starting all over again
Everyday
But that's okay because it just means a fresh start...
Right?
Today is the second day that I've worked out after not working out for 2 weeks
And it feels like I'm starting from scratch
My muscles are so fatigued, it was really hard to get through the work out
But I did it
And I'll do it again tomorrow
Because I'm never giving up

Set backs are part of life
It's what makes me know I'm on the right track
I'm looking at them differently now...
Not as brick walls
But as hurdles that I'm getting in better shape to jump over
Here I come May 22nd

Gratitude

I start my day with a healthy dose of gratitude.
Yesterday is gone.
Tomorrow is not here yet.
Being grateful for right now is the key.
Any mistakes that I have made in the past is not who I am,
It's who I was.

With that in mind,
Learning to love myself for who I am, right now, is a challenge.
Because that little voice that sounds like a scolding parent tends to pop up when I least expect it.
SHUT UP!!!!
Nobody wants to hear from you voice!!


So, feeling much better now.
The devil flu has loosened it's grip.
Looking forward to getting back on the exercise track!
I told Deb Cheslow yesterday, "If there is one thing that stands out in my mind on what I have gotten out of The Release program, it's that I have to exercise at least 5 days a week to feel good!"
Wow, yea, I really said that and I meant it.
Me.
Who knew?

A funny thing happened on the way...

to my goal...
Oh I started out with so much momentum, but then I lost steam.
Like anything else
Its new and exciting at first...then it becomes old hat.

I've been sick with the flu for the past 10 days.
As a result I've lost some weight.
But it's not weight that I intended to lose.

In order to do this for the rest of my life, I have to intend to keep my momentum.
Intend to keep to the Release Plan.
Intend to stay true to what I want the most.
A long, healthy, fulfilled  life...
Full of Intent!


So now that I'm on the mend from the ever lasting flu.
I intend to stay on plan,
I intend to have a healthy respect for myself,
I intend to live my dreams,
and most of all,
I intend to rock my next progress picture on May 22!!!
YEAH!!!

Oh, and god bless yoga pants. :-)
