That being said I had some extraordinary thoughts and motivation and it feels so good to be in my preferred frame of mind again.
First of all, I got to talk to one of my former trainers and I told her my plan for becoming a trainer myself one day and feeling like I needed to "get my head right".
Shortly after I got an instant message from a woman that soon will be considered family, thanking me for being so transparent and sharing my story and struggles and told me how I've affected her. Now, I've heard things similar to this in the past, more or less profound, but it didn't hit me as hard as it did today. Today I realized by NOT working toward my goals I wasn't getting where I wanted to be. No brainer right? Well sometimes when your head is somewhere else or when life and stress and all of that get in the way, it's hard to lose sight of what I want.
So what DO I want?
I want to inspire people and I want to help people and while discussing my struggles openly I give people hope they are not alone and while I struggle I learn. Isn't that what life is about anyway? Learning and growing as a person. While clearly I would love to see my magic number on the scale, but moreso I want to FEEL good, I want to DO good, I want to BE good. In order to do, and feel, and be good, I need to get my head in the game and do my damnedest to keep it there!
So far today, it's been a good day! I combatted my sugar cravings and got through them completely unharmed and feeling amazing and proud.
