I am giving up weighing in at 148 or 149 I am striving for lower numbers because it is a healthier weight for me. To do this I will spend my valuable time planning and creating meals using the best of the seasonal bounty that is available in my local area. I will up my protein intake to 30 percent and incorporate at least 3 days of weight training for toning and the afterburner effect! This is a wonderful time of the year to get moving and shake things up. Today I will change it up...... To Maintenance and Beyond, TOWANDA!!!!!

When we choose that which is not best for us, there can be a deep seated part of us that does not want to change. In almost every case, we know what is best for us in our lives, from the relationships we create to the food we eat. Still, somewhat mysteriously, it is often difficult to make the right choices for ourselves. We find ourselves hanging out with someone who leaves us feeling drained or choosing to eat fast food over a salad. We go through phases where we stop doing yoga or taking vitamins, even though we feel so much better when we do. Often we have no idea why we continue to make the choice, but it is important that we inquire into ourselves to find out.
When we choose that which is not best for us, the truth can be that there is a deep seated part of us that does not want to heal. We may say it’s because we don’t have the time or the energy or the resources, but the real truth is that when we don’t take care of ourselves we are falling prey to self-sabotage. Self-sabotage happens unconsciously, which is why it’s so difficult to see that we are doing it.
When we recognize that we are not making healthy choices, we might even say out loud, “I am not taking care of myself.” Sometimes this is the jolt we need to wake up to what is actually happening. keep a journal, or have a discussion with a trusted friend to explore the matter more thoroughly. Just shining the light of our awareness on the source of our resistance is sometimes enough to dispel its power. Stay focused and determined about what you want and make the change. TOWANDA!!!!!!!
