Today, I made the decision to start actively writing out the positive things about myself. You see people on social medias talking about themselves negatively, and it's unattractive. Not only that, but typically it's something that's not even real and no one else thinks it. It makes you seem petty and unappreciative. I want to promote positive mind/body/soul perceptions, and honestly, I have plenty to be thankful for! I made a goal that at least 3 days a week (it's looking like every night so far) I would physically write out what I am learning to love and appreciate about myself.
Day 1: So, first things first- I love my skin color. Whether it's winter and I'm chalky white, or summer and I have a nice glow going on, I'm happy. I rock both looks and luckily, I do get to do them both. I love that my skin color is even, and I love the way my freckles look on my skin.
*I think this positivity came out of the negativity I saw all over Instagram yesterday. People just being rude...inspirational people being rude. It was sad. I was to really feel great inside/out and it's about being positive.
Day 2: Today, as with many days since my Dec. 26, 2012 start of my weight loss journey, I feel STRONG! After having about a week off of Bootcamp bc of our vacation, we had our first one tonight. I was worried that I'd be slow, or unable to do some of the exercises. But, I felt like I did really great at Bootcamp. We did 110 Burpees in total, the most I've ever done in my life. We could do 10 at a time, without stopping, which is 2x as much as we could do when we originally started. I know that I am getting stronger everyday, and I am proud of the strength.
ADAPTABILITY - I can change to fit the demands of what needs to be done to get results, be it in my job, relationship, school, or weightloss journey. I am not so rigid and tied to a set structure that I've left no room for development. Change is constant, and I can handle and greet changes. I can adapt to better suit myself or others.
I started this blog in 2011, to record my weight loss journey, & to hold myself accountable. Specifically, I began my journey Dec. 26th 2011. I'm 22 years old, female, 5'4, and to date have lost 44 pounds. This year, I have made incredible leaps and bounds in my journey and I LOVE the blogging community. My followers are crazy smart & super creative! I steal a lot of my good ideas from them ;) Hope through my posts, y'all are able to steal a few also. Thanks for stopping by!
