Set backs!

Hello 2013! How has it been so far for my friends out there. A little update on me! OUCH is all I can say! My 2012-2013 hasnt been so wonderful. First my health hasnt been the greatest. I had a few mini strokes a few months ago, and was put in the hospital for some time. I also had some weight gain. Which for me was very hard. I work hard daily to live and breath fitness and to empower other people to live a better life style and I turn around and gain weight and become very un healthy! But as well all do we get set backs. Sometimes life steps in and stops us from what we want to happen. But with that said its time to step up my game! As well as say to my readers, please FORGIVE your self when you have a set back. YOU can get back on track and YOU can make better changes. Please dont be so hard on your self that you allow that little voice in side tell you that you CANT do something.
What is your biggest fear? What stops you from loving your self? Maybe some of you can relate to this, when I was a little girl I was picked on for my weight. I was always the big kid as I talk about in other blogs. But now as an adult the little voice in my head says well whatever betsy, you know it will feel better with that dount and food will never let you down and people will. Just like in relationships they say 80% of couples will gain 40lbs each over a 9 year study. WOW why is this? well because they become comfortable with each other, and go out to eat more and enjoy cooking. I love cooking a good meal and watching people enjoy it and make their plates all clean. Food is a battle for me every day. I love to eat! I love to feel full! Why do they make food taste so good thats bad for u! :) Thru time you will learn to love food that will taste good and feel good and not add 10 lbs to your butt!
What are some things you say to your self every day in the mirror! What are your goals! What are your dreams! ASK your self those things and reflect on them! In the next few blogs we are going to work on those lists together and help you and me make those goals become real!
