I want to feel ... (No negativity zone)

:bigsmile: I am trying to motivate myself so I make lists to try and change my mood and perspective.....


Feel free to re-post and put how you want to feel in these situations, or ones that you make up


I want to feel :

Beautiful= when someone takes my picture
Amazed= when I get on the scale :love:
Sexy= when I get dolled up
Confident= when i go to a meeting / interview
Strong= when I work out
Healthy= when I eat or climb a flight of stairs
Energetic= when i wake up
Happy= when I see old pictures of myself
Positive= when i see myself in the mirror :flowerforyou:
Excited= when I go clothes shopping
Equal= when I am around gorgeous women or thin mints :blushing:
Proud= when I look back six months from now at my weight loss :bigsmile:

lists always help me identify my emotions better, which usually help me from shoveling food in my face and refocus on my goals.

:heart: Good luck on your journey everyone :heart:

    I love your posts! I completely agree, I would love to be able to throw anything on and feel confident and beautiful, and not feel the need to hide my muffin top or my arms being bigger than I want.

    Thank you for the awesome post!

    Wow, thanks for this post....got me thinking of something else besides "white knuckling" it when I try to resist the temptation to NOT TAKE CARE OF MYSELF !!! Hmmmmm I want to feel peaceful when I lay my head on my pillow at night.

    That is a good point, however....I am not doing that becuase a lot of ladies enjoy my topics and send me messages and friends requests. I dont think its fair to punish them or myself and deny an opportunity for more support becuase some people lack manners.

    You have posted on other topics of mine and said things that a lot of people found degrading/offensive/judgemental.
    You also do not have any business to talk to people like you are a doctor or therapist.
    I am "Ignoring" you. So that I wont see anymore of your "polite" responses on EVERY topic I post.
    Please quite following me....Thanks.

    I respond to lots of posts, as you can see from my post count on the left. If one of my posts was offensive or violated guidelines, again, report it to the mods. I can respond to posts however I like within the community guidelines, which I haven't violated. I'm sorry if you didn't agree with my point of view on whichever post you are referring to, but that's really not my problem.

    Yo that is a good list. I might steal some ideas myself.

    one I have though is
    strong= I know I will put myself into some fight situations.
  • Don't listen to trolls. Unless they're Disney trolls. Then, well, duh.

    so what is the argument about. Post being offensive. You know what I do. I pay not attention to those people. Now if you bully pissed off someone on my friends list. Then its time for me to intervene. I don't start stuff but I will gladly finish it. If you don't like a post don't read it and move on. Let the person talk to themselves in the thread.

    Well as you see I am not a small guy. I do have some muscle. I was bullied before and was never man enough to stand up to that. So when I see this happening again I can do something about it this time around.
