What I have discovered and where I am going.

Sunday, May 13, 2012


That is me, while I was walking at the Relay for Life. Seeing that picture I came to a conclusion, I am fat. My goodness I am fat, there is no denying it and I have to face it and admit it.

That isn't where I want stay. In a year from now when I am walking at the Relay for Life I want a picture taken so I can say now that is more like it.

I can see myself with more energy, I can see myself definitely smaller. I can see the confidence in my steps and the I can do attitude reflected in my smile. That is going to be my future. No more can't it is only cans from here on out.

    Jan, hold on to that image in your mind when someone offers you seconds, or someone brings something to snack on at work. I am trying to maintain that vision of myself and use it to get me through the times when I feel weak or defeated. Hang in there, sister - you can do it!

    Jan I have no doubt that you can do anything you set your mind to, just remember all your success in the past with losing and bring that to the forefront and you will have no trouble getting where you want to go.

I for one can't wait to see that next picture and then post a big emoticon on the success you have accomplished.

    so need to give yourself kudos for doing that walk...and the determination of doing activities like this shows that you are on the right path. As your walking...you're moving....that means there is motion, and with one foot infront of the other...your going forward!!!! Kudos!!

  The power of an image!! Now, imagine all the other things you can see if you just look. I hope you are working with the Workshop. There you will begin to see things not only to change, but to harvest for your own health & enjoyment.
