Thanks for the Support


Thanks Carrie, Becky, Jennifer and Melody for your encouragement. It's good to know that I have people out there cheering me on! I thought of each one of you today when I got home from school. Instead of pigging out because of my stressful day, I ran on the treadmill! I couldn't believe I had the energy because I felt drained, and it WAS hard, but once I got done...I felt so much better. I had energy to finish the work I needed to get done today for school.

I also have decided that I'm going to write on a calendar one positive thing I'm doing each day to promote my health. I think part of my problem is that I always want to do everything perfectly, and if I have one mistake, I get down on myself. So this way I can see all the things that I have done well.

Thanks again, I really do need the push!

I just can't figure out how your picture goes with your blog post. I think I'm dumb :(

I'm here for ya girl! Congrats on making the choice to run instead of eat! I felt like I did the same thing yesterday morning as I bypassed the weekly cinnamon rolls at school. I just don't need to eat twice in one morning!

I get it! Don't you remember those commercials "Thanks for your support"

Great job...... It feels so good when you do the "healthy" thing.

I used to have a calendar on my fridge and I would write with a black sharpie my exercise on each day. I would also make a big black X on the days I didn't exercise to try to make me feel guilty. Now I just write the exercise on there and don't X out the other days. No one needs negative re-enforcement! I love your idea of healthy, positive statements on your calendar!!!
