I am ashamed to admit that I am a grass
is greener kind of girl. I am constantly finding myself
thinking how the grass is greener on the other side. I am always waiting for something
to happen that is going to make everything better. I always
think “if
only
______ then things would be great”. The funny thing is that when I lived in
Cali I didn’t realize how much I love grass.
Living here in the valley of the sun has made me realize how a little grass
here and there makes me so happy. I love the bright green color and the feel of
it under my bare feet. I love how it makes me feel at home. I am beginning to
realize that I have to plant my own grass in life,
love that little bit of grass that I have, and embrace the good things in my
life.
It’s a process. I do a lot of chanting in my head. I
remind myself how this is a journey.
I remind myself of the much anticipated shopping spree and the name brand booty
bling jeans that I want. I remind myself how much better I feel already. This is
a lifestyle. It’s not a race. It’s a change forever. I’m proud of the good
choices that I made this week. I am happy in my now and so
excited for my future.
My gym was closed for renovation this week.
Thankfully we had beautiful weather. I got outside and walked and ran. I DO NOT like running! I never have. It’s so
mental. This week I worked up to being able to run 3 miles without stopping!!!!
That’s huge for me. I really missed the gym though. It’s just so easy to get
cardio in while watching t.v. The whole
week I felt like I wasn’t getting enough exercise. I worked hard and really
watched my calorie intake. It’s a slow week, but I am down.
So, I am happy to report that this week
So, I am happy to report that this week

a pound people. But, I’m down!!!!

total!!
Man did I work for that half a pound. I am going to get that elusive 20 pounds next week!!!!
