I haven’t written in a while, mostly because I had no idea what to write. My blog so far, has mostly been about me battling my inner fat girl en route to the stage…
Been there…done that..
Since deciding not to compete, I felt a LOT lost. Didn’t know what to do with myself. Finally, after a few months and numerous battles with ‘fat girl’..I finally feel like I am in a good spot.
Competing was good for me, because it gave me a goal. A scary goal. With an A type personality, having a goal (for me) is a must….and unfortunately for me, it needs to be BIG and SCARY. I AM trying to find interim goals that are not so big and scary, but for now, my next scary goal is coming up in 4 weeks…stay tuned!
In the meantime, I continue to battle this inner fat girl, and try to understand why we battle so much. EVERY single day. Sometimes I can keep her in check, other times I feel very defeated by her. Whatever the reason, my challenge is to understand why and how I let her thrive sometimes, because it is just that. I LET her thrive….self-sabotage? Who knows…
‘Health and Fitness’ is not a destination…it’s a life long journey, with lots of ups and downs, peaks and valleys, and visits from ‘fat girl’. My job, is to enjoy the journey, learn the lessons that are being taught, and to keep moving forward. One step at a time.
