New Start!

HI Everyone,

As you may have noticed I have been MIA for a few weeks. Part of that is because things are so crazy busy right now that I have nothing in me left to write when I get home. A larger part of that is that I have been feeling a little discouraged. I have been really struggling with plugging into my psych and making choices that honour my body. I get so caught up in the moment and go with what feels good instead of what feels right. The end result? A month has passed and I am heavier than I was and more miserable. That changes today.

Today is exactly 30 weeks until January 1st, 2014. When I figured that out, I got excited! A whole lot can happen in 30 weeks and a whole lot IS going to happen in the next 30. As of this morning I am still 1/4 of the way to my goal of losing 100 pounds in 2013. That is better than a punch in the junk!
I am seeing a great Naturopathic Doctor and together we are working on some of my health issues. She has prescribed an eating plan that is grain-free, low dairy, high protein and veg. I am going to take it meal by meal and try to eat this way most of the time. I need to cut back a bit on my coffee intake which has been steadily increasing but I am not giving it up. I enjoy it too much!

I am also getting back to writing and rewriting my goals every day. This was so important in the beginning to keep me motivated and my eye on the prize. Here are my goals for the next 30 days:
  • I nourish my body with food that helps to repair and heal my health
  • I drink 3 litres of pure water daily to replenish and rehydrate my body
  • I take my supplements consistently and pay attention to the changes that are occurring within my body
  • I move my body everyday and get outside to enjoy the sunshine
  • I judge the success of my journey but how I feel, not by what the scale says
If you have been following me and have lost your way like I had, today is a great day to get back on track. 30 weeks from now, we are going to be different. It can be a positive change or a not so positive one. We have the control! I have been so inspired by many of my friends who are kicking ass and taking names (Lindsay and Krista, you are both doing AMAZING). Time to start shining again!

                      My little reason for being and doing better. YOU CAN DO IT MOMMY!!
