The Reinvention of me.....

I have been doing alot of soul searching, for the most part I am happy. I have a wonderful husband and children whome I adore. My family is truly my world. I have a great career and I actually really like the people I work with...love the company too...

So why am I still unhappy? People tell me I am pretty or I have a nice smile all the time....but I am still unhappy. I am not the me I want to be. I don't ever like to look in a full length mirror, hate to go shopping for ...
I have been doing alot of soul searching, for the most part I am happy. I have a wonderful husband and children whome I adore. My family is truly my world. I have a great career and I actually really like the people I work with...love the company too...

So why am I still unhappy? People tell me I am pretty or I have a nice smile all the time....but I am still unhappy. I am not the me I want to be. I don't ever like to look in a full length mirror, hate to go shopping for myself....I live on an island and hate the thought of a bathing suite....

I want to enjoy my life I want to free myself of the burdens, negative thoughts and worries....the wonders of what other people think of me...especially after my hubby lost 88 lbs....and is looking great. It's amazing what carrying extra weight cando to ones self esteem....I recently hit my rock bottom when a friend ( or someone I thought was a friend) said to hubby after having dinner "You look great I mean WOW!" and in the same breath turn to me and say "You really need to catch up to him honey")

She probably did not realise how hurtful that was.....I cried that night and turned to food as my comfort and gave up......BUT today I realised I did this to me...I became sedatary for one reason or another, I skipped breakfast, and at times lunch and dinner, I resorted to fast foods.....and just like I did all those things. I can UNDO them and I will.....

So....this is the reinvention of me....

In addition to losing some unwanted weight, there are some other goals of equal importance. Like I have never been able to run or jog I now want to run a 5k.....and one day I want to run the Disney half Marathon - its MY favorite place on earth and what better way to celebrate my truimph....

I have never had a stong core (abs) I now want to strength train and make my body stronger......

I want to break the cycle of diabetes, high cholestorol, and high blood pressure which have long running and deep roots on both sides of my family tree....

I want to be free....I want to be me....The NEW ME....

Hey!!!!! I am so glad you decided to join SP. I hope all is well on your journey to fitness and wellness. I had posted my story about SP on the LWC, and didn't know that someone would actually check it out (which was the point). I am glad you decided to give it a chance. This site and it's encouraging members has given me a new lease on life (literally). It feels so good to be able to go in my favorite stores and be able to wear CLOTHES that I want. The best part is when people ask me, "What have you been doing?

Who would've ever thought how successful I could actually be emoticon I can guarantee you that this journey won't be easy, but with a lot of hard-work and dedication it could lead you on the road to success in no time. emoticon Don't be a stranger.......K.I.T. emoticon emoticon emoticon
