Saturday Sunshine

     It is January 7th, the sun is shining and it is supposed to be close to 60 today?? Do I really live in the Midwest? I am going to take it though, puts me in a fabulous frame of mind as did the following post...found on Pintrest:

     When I read this as I sat down for oatmeal and coffee in front of my computer it really resonated with me. I have let this disorderd eating issues, define and confine me for SO long! Now I am choosing to leave it behind me and move on!
     Before I even read this quote this morning,  I was driving home after my second awesome session with my new trainer and I thought to myself "Jen, you really are going to do this!". I haven't been this confident in myself in a long, long time. But I just have this feeling inside this time, that this is the time to finally do it. It also helps that I am working with a very understanding and nurturing nutritionist, as well as a very positive personal trainer. As well as the support of my spectaular family and friends.
     After my training session today, I was so excited for the next session (Tuesday!), again, I haven't felt like this  about anything exercise related, but running, in a long time! I basically just went to fitness classes on autopilot, not really engaging. I can't wait for my husband to get out of bed later today to tell him how MUCH I am loving this trainer and how the money was totally worth it and show him how positive of a change this is (he can be skeptical). So needless to say I am in a rather upbeat mood today.
     It also has hit me (AHA moments everyday!) that if I just stay positive, positive things will happen or at least I will just be happier and the crappy stuff won't seem as crappy!  I mean don't get me wrong I am an all around positive, outgoing person. But when it comes to most of my personal issues, as well as the disordered eating, I can be rather negative and down, although I won't show it (often). So,I have also decided to work on my attidute as well, because I think that play a HUGE role, if not one of the biggest, in succeeding. I have always believed in karma,( putting postitive out and getting it back sorta thing) and  always  try to practice it with others, but maybe it is time to practice it with myself as well.
    So, here is to a Saturday full of sunshine, positivity and probably (later) some (good) sore muscles! Enjoy! Cheers!
