No Excuses!

Ladies!

It's been too long! I'm hoping that you're doing great and that you're still excited about all the fabulous things you said you would accomplish this year! I know that life has a way of making you feel disqualified from all things fabulous. But don't believe the hype! You deserve every incredible thing that you could ever consider. You're fabulous! I believe in you! So let's get going!

Like you, I have various goals that I would like to see accomplished this year. One particular goal that I'm working on right now is losing my baby weight. While pregnant, I had a MAJOR proclivity to steak and cheese sandwiches! It was vicious! I ignored all these new reports that tell you how much weight you can gain and just ate when I was hungry! ya mean! But the baby's here now and he's super healthy. So it's time for me to get back on my game. :)

Now, I'm no fool. It took me 9 months to gain 40 lbs, so I'm not expecting to lose it overnight. BUT, I surely can't stop there and begin making excuses for myself. I recently started a new fitness program and I'm loving it! But there are definitely days when I feel more discouraged than I do inspired because I feel so far away from my goal. My husband says depression and feeling sorry for myself won't get me anywhere. Lemme tell ya, that was pretty hard to hear. I was expecting him to join my pity party. I had the table set for two! LOL! But he's right. Being sad about not currently being at my goal doesn't benefit me. Therefore, I'm declaring to YOU that I WILL continue to workout every day! I WILL continue to eat healthy and take care of my spirit by praying and reading the Word. I'm going after a better me this year! No excuses!! Won't you join me? :)

Smooches!
...hugs too!
