Oh The Rriver, Oh The River, It's Running Free

I think this my year, the year it all comes together. It's really sinking in what I've accomplished and just what I can achieve this year. On Instagram lately I've been getting really good feedback, people have been leaving comments saying I'm inspiring them and sending me messages asking for advice, to which I've been giving to the best I can. It really is a powerful thing when someone overweight says they are inspired by me and are about to start their journey and would like tips from me, me of all people. It's like last year when someone left a comment on blog saying I inspired them to start exercising again. Like what? Me? I did that?! It feels really good, especially now with a more clear mind.

I feel like this is my year to zero in on those lower numbers and have a smokin' hawt bod (lol, obviously I kid), achieve some goals, inspire others it's just feeling right. I'm going to start working on getting my mom in shape too, that is a goal of mine as well. I re-activated my Facebook and honestly it's no big deal. I'm not obsessing over anyone's overindulge, decadent, fulfilling, relevant or  irrelevant  lives (yet), in hindsight my last year wasn't exactly boring on paper. My  friend Melissa was just telling how proud I should be at just how much personal progress I've had just last year alone, it was kind of crazy and scary and turbulent and chaotic and heroic and brave and a bunch of other things all at once. So here's to a more optimistic 2017, and a better thinner me.

Smooth Sailing

The week seems to have just glided by, it's almost over. I've been sleeping well, this morning however I woke-up feeling kind of out of it.  A recent comment mentioned going down in shirt sizes, that's interesting because my therapist has been saying I should do this for weeks, new clothes, it's a touchy subject. I'm not quite sure there is enough of a difference to warrant me getting new lower sizes. As I told my therapist (whom thought I was being ridiculous) I've laid in these shirts in so many different ways and contorted them that it's really no telling if weight loss  has anything to with this appearance. So I really don't want to go down lower in sizes and be disappointed, and then wouldn't going down in size make me look bigger anyways? I know the logic in that last bit is odd , but it just came to me, I can't rationalize it, but it seems valid as if this sentence. Mentally I'm mostly stable, however that picture of me by the campe...

I Watched Some Picture Films

-
I always like when people refer to movies as "picture films." I actually watched some movies over the weekend several days in a row. I even watched one this morning called The Loft , yesterday I watched The Account with Ben Affleck (so good). Its been really nice getting caught up in movie worlds for a little bit of time again, especially the horror ones, I really love a good spooky film. I watched one called From The Dark that was really good and I actually have a few to watch tonight so that should be scary fun. I got some Canadian bacon because I was told this was better for me than regular bacon because its considered lean or whatever, I also got some peanut butter 2 that I'm planning on making on an Instagram story video thing maybe today, its basically this powdery peanut butter you add water to that turns into normal peanut butter that has less fat and calories than regular peanut butter, so if you're following me on Instagram be looking out for that. How ...

Boot Camp Week Day Five

The final day of boot camp week is upon us. Today the exercise goal is to complete the four mile challenge, which would give me a new miles per week peak. The food goal is simple once again, and the consistent goal of the week. Stay below 1,800 calories. I got news yesterday that my oldest nephew might be coming down for the weekend. That's pretty awesome news. His spring break starts today, but he'll only be here the weekend (versus the entire break previously), but   it wasn't set in stone so I'm not expecting anything.  He has been getting all A's in school this semester so far so I'm really proud of him. Today I'm getting blood work done, and will likely schedule  that follow up appointment.
