In the last week or so I've had about a million thoughts going through my head. So rather than keeping them all bottled up inside, I would share them with you here. After all isn't that the point of this thing?
First, I've developed a new pet peeve...when you help someone out with something and they don't say "hey thanks!" I think that's all anyone every really wants when helping out. I mean how difficult is it really? Especially when it's a favor that does take time can you please just be like "ya know, I appreciate it!" It makes people feel good, and it makes them feel like they did something right in the day.
I have a kanker sore, and it hurts. I want it to go away. Now.
Loud, rude children annoy the heck out of me. Parents need to learn to control their mutts in public places.
I'm starting my individual boxing lessons soon. In about 3 month I get my first bout. I gotta find some really groovy wraps...I'm thinking some camo wraps. Yes. Camo.
I need to get my dogs flee and tick stuff. We've found about 6 ticks already this Spring, between Tony and Spike.
I got a mosquito bite! The first one of the summer...it has arrived!
Summer is coming and I am really hoping and praying that I'm gonna get these last three inches off of me. They're hanging on like a bad cold holds on in winter. SOOOO dang close and I think that's my problem. If I stay exactly where I am I'll be able to enlist in December. Do you know how frustrating it is??!! UGH!
Basically, who are we kidding, those three inches are what's on my mind all the time. As much as children who are rude, as well as people who are ungrateful have been driving me nuts, I feel like my life is consumed by the number three. Am I under eating? Am I over eating? Am I exercising too much? Should I run more? Should I focus on my core? Should I listen to this person or that person? All these things running through my head. Time will tell, as will the summer, but man it's frustrating.
Well, those are my random thoughts of the week. Thanks for reading! :)
I suspect all of the above are your thoughts. The agonizing over the three inches just exacerbates them even more. How many inches have you lost so far? Seriously. I was wondering that the other day. . . Can you post that sometime?
ReplyDeleteYour frustration reminded me of another analogy.
ReplyDeleteYou know what they tell women who try to conceive so hard and they just can't? The advice is to relax and to take the mind off conceiving. Determination is good, but too much obsession creates stress. As we know, "bad" stress does nasty things to our bodies. Once a woman relaxes - the stress of having to get pregnant goes away. Less stress = the body performs better. I can SO draw a parallel to your story.
Keep doing what you are doing (awesome job by the way), but don't stress yourself out every day with constantly thinking about those inches. Doing something about it is good, obsessing is not.
Believe in the power of attraction (from the Secret) - your thoughts will eventually transform into real life. If you keep thinking about those extra inches - they might stick around for a while. If you keep thinking about thinner, healthier you and have that image in your mind - it will happen.
Keep up the good work, you are an inspiration!
I personally don't know if this works, but I came across the site in one of the Ft. Sill wives groups. www.sherrigwinn.itworks.net
ReplyDeleteApparently there is a wrap that can help get rid of inches? I looked at it a little bit, but it's worth looking into...
