Starting over

Thursday, July 26, 2012

I realized today that I don't love myself. After all, if you love something you take care of it, and I don't take very good care of me in anyway. I know Jesus loves me. Now I just need to believe that I'm worth the effort, time, and energy. So here I am again...starting over...again. If I want to lose weight or make any other changes; if I want to help my son; then I have to love myself and help myself first. There's nothing wrong with me. I don't know why I don't love me, but that doesn't matter. What matters is realizing it and moving on. I'm worth taking care of. Now I just have to tell myself that enough times that I begin to believe it.

    You are worth it,! One step at a time, set small goals to start, and celebrate your positives. Focus on what you're doing right for your body and your health, and soon you'll be looking at the finish line. :)

    I totally know what you are saying! I often tell my friends that very thing. " you need to take care of yourself and love yourself before you can do anything for anyone else. Yet I never took my own advice. I have ALWAYS placed my son before me....Just know you are worthy! One step at a time and you will get there!!

    I had a similar ah-ha moment last week and I've had a good week of getting on track since. I don't love me much either, but why? I am working on it. I wish you much success proving to yourself that you do love you. Keep on Sparking!
