Negativity!

So, I have been sitting on this collage and picture for a while. Possibly out of fear or coming up with the right words. But here it goes.......

I am a bubbly, bright, happy go lucky person who is always smiling, always hoping to help and always hoping that the good in people still exists.

Call me naive, if you wish. I'm OK with that. :)

Lately, I've been dealing with alot of negativity around me. I was able to brush it off for a little while then it started wearing on me. And I feel like the more I fight it, the more it seaps in. But I've come to realize that just because someone else hates their life, job, situations and circumstances and have chosen to use me as a target, I will not let them!

My life may not be a fairy tale, but it is great! I have wonderful kids, family, husband, friends, job and overall appreciation for the life I've been given. And for all that, I thank GOD!

Just know, that just because people are rude, hateful, disgruntled, jealous, or fearful.... They do not own you, they do not control you, their feelings toward you can only consume you if you let it. Don't let them win! Don't let them see that they bother you!

You are a wonderful person! You are an important person! You make your life what you want it to be!

With love, happiness and smiles,

Progress update! :)

Alright, lets get real for a moment!

We've all been there. Heck I was there too! "Those programs can't work!", "I want to see what real people look like!", " They must've photoshopped those pictures!", "I can't do that!", " I'm too out of shape to start with that!", " I can't afford it!", "It costs too much!"...... Whatever your excuse may be.......

I was skeptical when my coach approached me about Beachbody. Heck, she chatted with me for 8 months....yes you read that right, 8 months before I committed! She never gave up, she never treated me like a problem, and she has been absolutely amazing!

I wasn't at or even near my goal weight when I joined. I'm still not. But I'm alot closer now than I was before. Jan 2014 I was at the heaviest weight I had ever been. Bouncing around near 250lbs. I was miserable. I didn't want to do anything, I hated trying on clothes. I couldn't wear alot of women's clothes so it was men's xxl shirts and whatever pants were comfy. It was depressing! But watching my coach and her posts gave me inspiration.

In June 2014 my husband and I started working out. I lost some weight... When I purchased 21 day fix in Nov, I was down about 15 lbs... Since then and the programs I've been able to use I'm down 48lbs and more than 25 total inches.

Has it been easy? Hell no!
Has it been worth it? Hell yes!
Am I done? No!
Will I quit? Absolutely not!
Can you do it? Definitely!
Will it be easy? Probably not! ( but my push ups and burpees now, are alot easier! ;) )
