I have always been a little scared of change. However, as scared as I am of change, it is time to CHOOSE to change in my life. I have been struggling with disordered eating for about six years and not living the healthy lifestyle that I really do WANT TO live. So, I want to share my journey to changing and recovery to maybe connect with those who are dealing with similar issues in their lives.

Inspiration for the get go
I found this image this morning while perusing Pintrest while drinking my morning smoothie, starting the day at work. I found it to be very appropriate and inspriational for where I am at right now and the direction I AM heading in. Today if my first meeting with a new trainer, and it feels SO refreshing to try something new and not the same old same old, like I am used to sticking to in a lot of areas in my life. During my struggle with disordered eating , I have been VERY resistent to putting my trust in what people were advising me to do to get better. By people I am referring to the experts, not just my husband (and family) telling me to eat more! But I could never FULLY trust these experts in their opinions and plans for me, many times I would start a plan whole-heartedly, only to give up a few days in or somehow sabotage myself in the process of trying to change. Other times, I believed their plans wouldn't work,or they would backfire and make me gain weight. But, I have come to realize they are experts for a reason and that I DO need to place my trust in them to get on the path to a healthy life. Their plans will not "sabotage" me like I thought they would, I sabotaged myself. Their plans will make me the healthier, happier, more balanced woman I am striving to be. So I am taking a chance, as the picture above says, placing my trust in these people I have chosen in my life to help lead me down the path I know will lead to the change I need and most definitely want to see.
