I read a Psychology Today article yesterday that really got me to rethink my goal-setting strategy where it concerns weight loss and fitness. So much so that I wrote a blog regarding this shift in perspective. Here is the link to my blog, which includes a link to the article:…

Happy to be Overweight!
It's taken over a year (I began my fitness journey in February 2010), but, as of this morning, I am now in the "overweight" BMI category, rather than the "obese" category!!! I couldn't be happier about this!!! Just had to share. :)

Mindful Indulging
"When I allow myself to admit the desire for what it is I find that the desire has less of a hold on me. I’m able to enjoy it and let it go, instead of clinging to denial, guilt, and a false self-image."

Getting out some frustration!
SO HUNGRY these days! I seem to do pretty well throughout the day (weekdays at work), yet lose it and binge in the evenings and on the weekends lately.

I AM Good Enough, Just As I AM.
