Love your Body

Too often women don't like their body so that is their drive for weight loss.   "I'll like myself when I lose 10 pounds" or "I would like myself if I was a size....." or  "I would like myself if I looked like...." I am going to tell you a secret.  You can like your self/body no matter what shape or size you are.  We are all special and amazing and beautiful.  We all have great things about us and we should all love ourselves.  That is easier said than done for some.  So, today I want you to write another list of 5 things you like about yourself.  You might have found some new things as you have gone on this healthy journey. Post it next to your goal chart or on the minor or somewhere you will see it everyday. You don't have to over think it, just write the first 5 things that come to your mind.   I will check in with you on this and we will talk more about this soon.

Improve your mood with out food

I know we have talked about this before but I am thinking we need to talk about it again.  When my life gets crazy this is what goes out the window first.  I know it has been something I need to be reminded of and work on.  I don't know about you but I eat to deal with stress, boredom and anger and I am ready to STOP IT!.... Again :)  I really liked the section at the end of the article that is titled "One thought at a time".  You really can choose to change your attitude and have happy thoughts instead of anger or stress. Give this article a read and remember you can do this.
