Why do we allow other people's opinions dictate how we should feel about our bodies / ourselves. It is an amazing world that we live in, both positive and negative!
TGIF! Today, out of the entire week, was a shift day for me. By that I mean, today I actually felt really great! I had a great run, got a few errands done, and then have been hanging out with the kids. I have been feeling positive and up on myself...life is good. So what changed!? It's amazing how your entire demeanor can change when your self confidence is lacking; Yet, when you have it, you feel unstoppable.
Your perception of yourself has such a huge impact on how others perceive you. In a world of "first impressions," don't you hope you leave a positive lasting one.
Why do I allow a number on a scale or the fit of my clothes to determine my mood? I am a woman, a healthy woman, a wanna-be athlete, a wife, a mom of two little ones, a person... I have so much to be thankful for and so much to be proud of. Sometimes, all I need is a little reality check with myself to realize that self confidence is what is really sexy...not any number.
We have to cut ourselves a little slack...we seem to be our own worst critics.
Sometimes, we just want that cookie...and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that!
we can learn a lot from kids!
I love when I feel this way... I truly feel, unstoppable.
