I AM...
no different than you. Except I've let other things take precedence over my weight.
often hard on myself.
better that what I let myself believe.
a daughter, a mother, a wife, a sister, a friend.
I am WORTH something to somebody.

I WILL...
make August my b*tch.
do my exercise for 60 min each day.
take one day at a time.
remember that above all else, I'm doing this for ME.
reach my ultimate goal weight.
stop having to lie down on the bed to button shorts that I got into last summer!!!
stop feeling sorry for myself. No one else did this to me.
understand that there is no miracle cure. It takes determination and willpower - 2 things I lack sometimes.
DO THIS. FINALLY. After trying and failing too many times...

I CAN...
because I'm determined.
because I owe it to myself.
because my kids deserve the best mom they can possibly have.
because I want to wear single digit clothing!
because I'm tired of being TIRED.

My mantra. Maybe this inspired some of you? Hoping to reflect back on this when the going gets tough. Today is a good day, but I know there will be many that will be harder and filled with temptation. Slow and steady WINS THE RACE.

Happy Monday, Happy August. Let's DO THIS!!! :)

    The start of a new month is always inspiring, we can do this together.

    I will not say quit, and I will not give up...
    I will do the best I can to eat healthier.
    I will be sure to exercise more everyday.
    I won't come home and say, but it was a long day at work and it was chaotic!
    I will lose the extra weight so I can wear those shorts hiding in the closet when I go back to my old store...
    I can and will do this...

    August will be my B*tch!!!
