This week has been pretty good so far.  I’ve gotten to Curves twice already.  I bet I can get 4 in this time!

I read on a blog @ Spark People - ( this is my interpretation)
When trying to lose weight and change your life style Instead of all of the negative thoughts and thinking what we will be “the perfect size”  Pretend that you are There!!  Having high self esteem is very beneficial to weight loss.  I FINALLY understand!!!  Of course (now that I know I’m an emotional eater) !!  When we’re depressed we want to eat!!  If we already feel good about our self and even comfortabe in our own skin we won’t think about eating so much. We’ll do more fun things because we would have the confidence!!  Im there!!  I really am going to start paying more attention to the things that I like about myself.  I was trying on some summer clothes on Sunday.  I fit into a pair of shorts from post 1 pregnancy.  I fit into them but if I wore them I would look like a Daisy Duke parade float.    I also tried on some dresses also from my 195 days.  They all fit!!!  The best thing though is that I do believe I will accomplish my goal of having  rock hard leg muscles!!  It may have been kind lighting but I didn’t hate the way I looked in shorts!!  I used to soo embarassed. 

Anyway, the day I decided to be kind to me.  I did have more energy!!  I was dancing around to music from Muppets In Space.  My darling 4 year old says”don’t do that mom, you embarrass me!”  I said “why?  His reply, “because when you shake like that your butt shakes!!  I was horriffied!!  I had just asked my dh a day ago if my butt jiggled when I jumped.  He said”no, it’s way better than before”  So here I am thinking my butt was nice even though still large.  My son drops this on me!  I found out today that he just doesn’t like anyone to wiggle their butt.
Since I”ve laid off the computer I’ve been getting a ton of things done.  I’m spending more time playing with the kids too. 
So here we go!!  I only blog once a week now but it’s really, really long!!

Just thought I would share my little awakening with ya!

Have a good one!
