Hello beaUtiful !
I feel stubborn.
It has been a tough week and I am not here to complain. I am here to think about my goals which have not changed over the course of the last little while. I know how I must train myself to think and feel. Points have worked for so long, but relaxing with food and weight is a nice way to be. No it has not been all rosy, but I sure am not going to let myself get worked up about things only to try something different. I am giving this a real go and my reward shall be peace and self love. A tall order, but like I said, stubborn is me.
There are some things that rub me the wrong way, but I will not let these Things derail me from what I know is a good philosophy for me. I know the principles of Intuitive Eating and The Zen of Eating are guides that allow me to achieve a peacefulness with myself.
I have discovered activity again like I was doing before the knee issues and I love it. Really, there is nothing better then feeling strong and healthy. Cardio is really something I missed and I am kicking it up a notch. Just a little notch. My booty has missed the good movement. ;) So this weeks goals, consistent activity!
I wish you all a great week. You can do it! Do it for yourself, beaUtiful !!!
*hugs*
YOU are so beaUtiful! Glad to here the stubborness serving you so well and not working against you. you keep on that path of peacefulness and strength. those are two important things to me also. zen of eating treating you right, it seems, yeah! intuitive eating has always made so much sense, too. Have a great week!
Consistent activity - there’s a great goal and you know you can do it.
You also know how great you’ll feel when you do.
Use your stubborness (strength) to achieve your goals.
Hugs

Way to refocus, very proud of you. I believe “that which dopes not kill us, makes us strong”. Love you!
Just came across your blog …wow really impressive weight loss. Super inspiring! Thanks!
JENNIFER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I tried to comment on your blog yesterday and my computer or BuddySlim wouldn’t let me. I was so sad. You know me I ALWAYS have something to say LOL!!!
Blah Blah Blah Blah…always got in trouble for talking to much
By the way you are BEAUTIFUL!!!! and I’m happy you are up and exercising again. I know how hard that it for you to not exercise.
Go ahead and be stubborn my friend. You will reach your goal of peace and self love I just know it!!!
Love you, Jane
“Cardio is really something I missed and I am kicking it up a notch.” This is something I discovered after giving up worrying about calories in and calories out. Also my weights, but I need to learn my limits so I stop injuring my shoulder. Have a great week of peace and tranquility.

You said: “there is nothing better then feeling strong and healthy.” Do you even know how POWERFUL that statement is? I think A LOT of people, myself included, take for granted the beauty and strength of our bodies. We become sedentary and when we attempt activity, our lifestyle comes to bite us in the a$$. I wish I was HALF as strong and healthy as I was in my 20’s and THAT is the place I want to get to, more so than being a perfect size 5 or 130 lbs. Suddenly, I have discovered the beauty around me and wish I could take more of it in, but alas, my lack of CONSISTENT activity these last few years, has caught up to me. I am so glad you made this point in your blog Jenn, a lot of us should really reflect on what it means to be physically healthy and strong! Great blog!
