I have missed you all once again...I have got to get this schedule organized more so I have more time to post, read, and comment...This week of work was good but very long. I have had a good time with it though have been going up and down the stairs a lot to get my exercise in, sometimes I feel like I'm just not getting enough. Still haven't weighed yet, think I am going to save it for Wednesday when Sean and Courtney go to weigh next, after all it is just a number, but I sure hope I have lost some numbers...want to be below two hundred sooo bad!!
Sean and I enjoyed a play today it was very good, and just loved spending some time together. Been working on his lines, it is so fun to watch and listen to him get into character, he is going to be great! Didn't get to meet his play wifey, but I guess I will soon, something must have come up...But we sure did have a great night!!
He will be going to the OSU game again this weekend with a friend and I hope they have a great time...I will get some housework done that needs it in a bad way and spend some time with Courtney, maybe her and I can go to the gym and get some good exercise in...
I have been doing the 1500 calories and exercise this whole journey, I have had a lot of changes in my body, but mainly in my mind..I have to tell myself a few things along the way....
WEIGHT LOSS....THERE IS A LOT OF ROAD ON THIS...BUT WE CAN GET IT TRAVELED...
THE FIRST THING IS TO ALWAYS KEEP IT SIMPLE.....THAT IS SIMPLY HOW ITS DONE...
EASY DOES IT!! ONE DAY AT A TIME
STAY FOCUSED FOCUS ON YOUR DREAMS ON WHAT YOU WANT AND GO GET THEM..FOCUS ON THE DAY TO DAY AND IF YOU DID IT YESTERDAY, WELL YOU CAN DO IT TODAY TOO!!
HAVE NO FEAR...YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
GOT TO HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF...
BELIEVE YOU CAN DO THIS AND KNOW IT WILL HAPPEN...
KEEP HOPE ALIVE AND DWELL THERE...DONT EVER DOUBT YOURSELF...
DREAM BIG AND FOLLOW THEM ALL THE WAY....
IF YOU DO ALL OF THESE...YOU WILL REACH YOUR GOAL!!
Cheers to new beginnings,
irene
great shot in the arm for this am, great stuff irene!
ReplyDeleteHow very true! I just wondered if you will be sharing any recipes with us?
ReplyDeleteHi Irene. Another great post. Don't know how you keep doing it!
ReplyDeleteYes, with ref to suzi's comment, a section on your blog with some of the calorie counted recipes you and Sean enjoy would be great.
Best wishes,
Bearfriend xx
I love that you take the time to make your posts so interesting and inspirational. I'm glad you had a great night out with your honey bunny! :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic post my love. Keep it simple, I love it! It was a great play! I was worried about memorizing all of those lines, but with your help---I'm not worried anymore...at all...not even a little bit. You're awesome baby and I love you forever!
ReplyDeleteWe really don't follow recipes do we? We throw stuff together and add it up. That omelet I had this morning---looked like it jumped off a recipe book---No, just whipped it up! All 200 calories of it! It was awesome!
I love you baby
Your Buddy
Sean
Oh Irene, I hear you on the "onederland" desire. I, too, cannot wait to be under 200. Seems silly sometimes to put such weight into a number, but for me it really symbolizes an important step.
ReplyDeleteKeep it simple - for sure!
Have a great week,
Lynn
Glad to hear from you, Irene. I am sure the numbers will be down when you weigh in!
ReplyDeletekeep is simple! why do we try to reinvent the wheel all the time! thanks for the reminder! good luck on your weigh in this week! I know you'll do great!
ReplyDeleteGreat words to follow.
ReplyDeleteLOVE THIS!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteKeep taking massive action, Irene!!!! My mentor taught me to never hope... only KNOW! He said I should be living a "hopeless life."
I know what he means now.... Know! Know! Know!
Make that belief system so strong in your soul, you can taste it, smell it, and feel it on your skin. Your belief never disappears... it only gets stronger!
Here's a little something I teach my students: Their "goals" are the daily actions they take, so they can feel success all the time. Their long term goals, I've switched to "motivations." The word, motivation is less pressure-filled than goal. Sometimes, "long term goals" can backfire because they're filled with tons of pressure to achieve.
I love the map to success!
ReplyDeleteYou're doing great Irene. <3
Hey there
ReplyDeleteYOu are doing awesome.
I know when you weigh in you will be under that number

For every step that I take on my next run, I will be thinking "no fear" in my head. Thank you SO very much.:-)
ReplyDeleteNicely put
ReplyDeleteI'm a little behind in my comments. Loved your "things to tell myself" all very true. That's nice you and Sean got to go to a play. I was thinking maybe I will do that with Mike soon, we have a little local theatre here.
