Intentness.....

You will never know what you can achieve unless you try.


Feeling kinda blaaa tonight. Health issues getting me down, in and out of the doctor (I hate going to the doctor). I hope to have a few of them taken care of in the next couple of weeks.....I've never had so many things going on at once.....I'm pretty sure all will turn out good, nothing major....just stressful and annoying!!

I still am working on getting that 20lbs. lost badge from HYC. I really like working towards small goals, mine is every 5 lbs. I saw a video on youtube about a woman that got sponsors to help her lose weight. Some one would pledge to give her inspiration for a certain amount of weight she lost. Sounds interesting......sometimes I feel so alone in this journey.....I know most of it I bring on myself by not wanting to tell the people that I know that I'm trying to be healthy, but that is to protect myself from the people that like to control everything I do. Oh well, I'm grateful for the support on here.

I went back to class today and I really thought it was going to be soooo hard, but it really wasn't! I think I did real good for not being in class for a week. I got 1 hour of exercise in today. I didn't do a double class because I'm trying to take it easy this week. We have themes of the month in class.

What a great post!! Best wishes with getting to that 20lb bling bling. You will be there in no time.!!

Lets see, I am intent on never going back to what I was nor letting life drag me back there. I am intent on always facing forward and not letting the pot holes suck me down. I am intent on being, every day, better then I was the day before. I am intent on being the best me not only for me but to me.

Have a WONDERFUL day!

Way to go on the exercise. Hope all is well for you healthwise. I am intent on following my goal to be healthier. I am intent on identifying the triggers that keep me from obtaining my goal. Have a great week!

So sorry for your health issues! I hope all resolves itself soon.

Intentness is huge in trying to become fit. It requires that we remain focused and committed to this one purpose, not ignoring other needs but incorporating them into the fitworld (rather than the other way around.)

Hmmm, intentness. This week I will accomplish the goals I set forth for myself!

You know what else? We are so worthy of positive affirmation from others and ourselves. You are doing great getting in all the exercise and seeing the doctor. Way to go on taking care of you! High five!! :)
