My wonderful blend Lisa over at I’m an Okie wrote a great post check it out! She inspired me today. Just what i needed after an eventful and emotional evening. I’m so thankful for wonderful friends who help me hold my head up, hold my hand, and keep me from self-sabotage.

 

Her question tonight was “What is your word for 2011″? I decided that my word for 2011 is ME.

 

this is me. real. authentic. crazy. kick-ass. honest. vulnerable. HONEST.

I’m working on me this year. Changing the person who i’ve become. This person who i am is not who i want to be. Changing this old me, into the new me. Changing my ideas about things. Changing my life and my choices with food, health, and life.  I’m losing weight and working hard. I’m starting to really love exercising and being active. Yes, it’s hard. Yes, it’s painful. (More painful lately because i think i hurt my achilles :-( ) But i love this person who I’m becoming. Love who I am or don’t. That’s okay with me.

I had a conversation this week with my wonderful friend Kenlie! She’s absolutely amazing! She’s come such a long way in her weight loss journey. Such an inspiration! She reminded me that this is a journey, for a lifetime, not a sprint! My new idea for my life, is to take it one day at a time. I’m really focusing on one day a time. Make everyday count for what it is. Be in the moment, love each day as it’s own.
