Well, things have been going. Not great but going. I've been working out every day. Food has been decent, I've had a little pizza but fruit, veggies and lean protein sources for the most part. Then today happened, I weighed myself.
I haven't exactly felt thinner, but I've been sore and feel a little difference. Hoping I might see unrealistic results, in my favor, I stepped on my mortal enemy. The scale. Needless to say, I did not like what I saw when I looked down. The day went to hell in a hand-basket, for my daily self-image after that. I was overly critical and participating in some very negative self-talk.
We all struggle with different "demons", "dragons" or as I like to call them, 🚽s . Pardon my foul language, but some of it sucks! It's important to acknowledge our weaknesses and use our strengths to improve. So riding the Chalene Johnson wave🏄, I am really working on being nice to myself! I'm really hard on myself, like so many others and it's doing me no good! As such, I want to share this with you, in hopes that it's either helpful or informational and above all else, useful in some way.
Perhaps I've found a theme, a daily lesson. My lesson today was to practice what I preach; that is, set realistic expectations for myself just as I do for others. Respect myself as I respect others, treat myself as I do others. Personal Karma, if you will. I'll also add my daily workout to the post, again accountability matters!
I hope your 2014 is off to a great start! 😎🎊
Learning everyday,
