What do you do when the sun is shining bright outside, but on your inside it's no so bright? You are tired. You're sad, lonely and frustrated. You're not seeing the results you think you should be seeing. You think it's so easy for everyone around you to be skinny or it's so easy for that person to lose weight. You then start to doubt yourself and discourage yourself even more. A cloud forms over you and soon it's just a monsoon of negative thoughts and emotions raining over you. You wallow in a puddle of low self esteem and self pity. How do you get out of that? What steps can you take to pull yourself out of that negative storm and bring yourself back to the light where you are more positive, caring and kind to yourself?
Loosing weight is not easy. For anyone. Whether you are 20 pounds over weight or over 100 pounds over weight. The thoughts and emotions are all the same for all of us. It's a complete roller coaster ride. Many days you feel on top of the world and that you got this. Then there are days where even though it's sunny, it's all just really dark. I have had many days like this in the past. Lately it seems as though I am starting to kind of just get blah with myself. It's funny how our emotions can change overnight! I am still tracking. I am still active. Not as much as I used to be in Washington, but I am moving. I can't quite put my finger on it. Okay so actually I do wjay my malfunction is. I can't change it but what I can do is accept it and move on and not let it consume me.
It's definitely not always rainbows and flowers. Somedays are better and easier than others. You just need to remember what your goal is and why it is you want to acheive it. Once you remember, you can refocus. I remember my goal. I see why I want to acheive that goal everyday with my little guys and my husband. Time to refocus. Time to snap out of the blahness and create new challenges for myself to acheive my goal. Just need to keep moving forward and not look back. Unless if it's to see just how far I have come.
