I have decided that Mondays are going to be the days that I
will weight myself. I will only do
this once a week for motivation, and although I have a pound goal, I am not
chained to the scale! During the
month, women fluctuate up to 5 pounds!
Therefore, I use the scale as a loose reference point.
My starting weight:171
My goal (for healthy BMI): 145
Thought of the day:
You are an original, like we talked about yesterday, so why do we
constantly compare our bodies to other people. Here’s an idea, let’s stop posting pictures of other peoples
bodies as “thinspiration” and instead start visualizing our own bodies at our
final goal. Visualization techniques
are used by the best athletes, so let’s try it for ourselves. If we keep looking at other women we
are only going to be disappointed, because you are original, just like they
are. You might be the same weight,
even the same height, but you will not look the same and that is OK! In fact, it is a wonderful thing! Let’s start loving our bodies, today!
I love your thought of the day! Thank you for making this blog! You are helping me realize that I should not be aspiring to be like the models I see on tv but that my body is made by God who can is absolutely perfect. He designed me this way. But, it return I should be taking care of this wonderful gift He has given to me. Thanks again and keep posting because you are really motivating me and helping me give this portion of my life to God.
