Back to Square one yet again...

Part 1 actually...

So, I've been SUPAH busy with life and all (new job, bigger job, longer commute, etc.) and I've lost track of myself.

I don't want to be another statistic. I don't want to out of shape.  I want to fit in my clothes.  I want to be healthy.  I want to deal with stress better.

I don't have time.  Argh.  

This all kicked off this week when I saw some recent pictures of me.  Here I am thinking I am stinkin' adorable and realizing I'm a professional executive who is mucho responsible but also out of control.  It's not like I eat bags of candy.  I don't binge.  My choices probably aren't the best.  But by golly!  Really?!

So then I think that I have to start this journey ALL over again.  The one I never finished in the first place (ie: 2 years ago?)  I don't want to be heavy all my life, but I get so darn discouraged about my weight.

Trying yields either success or an opportunity to learn;
not trying has no positive result besides avoiding mockery or envy that
(research shows) wouldn’t be nearly as big or bad as we fear.
—Martha Beck


This is a great reminder to me. To be ok with starting over. To be ok with my "giving it a year" taking two (or more) years.


I am a professional woman who no longer has the need to be out of control with my health and well being.  I am where I am.  I have to start somewhere.  And no one is going to choose this for me.

I choose health

I choose wellness

I choose flexibility

I choose making solid choices

This is for me.  And it feels a bit naughty.  I've never allowed myself to take care of me.

It's my turn.

See, that just sounds selfish!  However, the definition of selfish doesn't sound like me...none of this is without regard for others.  It will make me a better mom, friend and worker bee.

Okie doke.  Onto the next phase.  I don't want to commit to anything  Isn't that sad!


I know, I know...I'm all over the place tonight. :)
