The Goal Setting Trap!

"So what are your current goals?" A quick selfie before hiking Stone Mt. in GA Everyone who is into fitness asks this question. It is a great question to be sure, I mean if you don't know what your goals are how can you possibly stay motivated and stick to your plan? A lot of people ask me what my goals were/are. I thought I would give a short outline of what I have worked on, achieved, and have planned for the future. Starting out, my biggest goal was to feel better about myself and my self image. That was a physical goal as well as a mental and emotional one. I also wanted to be stronger and just be able to do the things in life I wanted to do (like hiking or biking trails, etc) without feeling drained or out of breath. Starting out I did not set a goal weight for myself- my therapist and I decided that focusing on the scale was not a healthy choice for me. I tend to get obsessed with numbers and with weighing myself- so in the beginning I only weighed in once...

Long Time, No See...

Hi there everyone. I can't believe how long it has been since I wrote anything here, months have gone by and my life has been changing and evolving. Some things have gotten better and some things have definitely gotten worse...the things that have gotten better are great but the things that have gotten worse- or out of control really got away from me. One thing in particular was this blog. I remember loving to write here and using it as an outlet for my emotional needs and for me to push some of the anxiety in my life out.

An Open Letter....

Dear, well, everyone really.... This is my open letter to you all about something which I am of two minds about. I can definitely see  both sides and yet can not help my feelings about both sides. I am writing to tell you that your  opinions on my body are unhelpful, unnecessary, and above all unwarranted. Simple as that. I don't  need or want you to comment on my body or the changes I have made, positive or negative...your comments on my body are unwelcome. Now, some of you seem to be of the mind that there is no such thing as a bad compliment, or that  your role as my friend or my family allows you some measure of an opinion on my physical state. Guess what, it doesn't. There are only 3 people in this world who get to tell me things about my body- who get to comment on the state of my plan- who get to tell me I am doing things the right or the wrong way....those are Myself (first and foremost),My Doctor, and My Therapist. If you aren't...
