Its All In the Mind


So I re-read my last post .... wowee..... who wrote that?! lol

I really appreciate the thoughtful comments and suggestions from my blog peeps.
I actually have started writing down what I have to be grateful for each day. I realize this whole battle is in the mind. I remember a time when the eating on plan and the 3 hours of workouts a day was actually EASY because my head was on straight, I remember telling Dan, wow its not even that hard... what was my problem before?
Its the same thing Tony tells me, I know it, but when your heads not right sometimes you just feel lost and not sure how to fix it. Its starts with your thoughts. My daily thoughts have been crap.


Tony says that before you go to bed each night visualize how your workout is going to go the next day, visualize the whole day going your way. I have only done this a handful of times but without exception I had an awesome day the next day. WHY don't I do this every night?

I have let old habits creep back, Tony said something to the effect that when change happens, tough times come, you are called to either go back the way you were or to change and grow.
Moving here was really tough. As soon as I stepped foot in this house all the old feeling of hopelessness came rushing back from when we lived here before. Even though I wasn't the same person, I FELT like I was.

I need to re-define who I am.

Katie did a post recently on limiting beliefs and I have been delving into that a bit. So lots of work to do in my head!

I bought the new Oxygen and I am anxious to read it. I have to run out and send a copy to a friend in Colorado, she wants to check out the Aussie version, I really like it now. :)

A gratitude journal is a wonderful idea as is setting your intention for the next day.

It is definitely all in our minds. Everyone know what to do to get the body of their dreams, it is the wanting/needing to do it no matter what life throws at us that we have to figure out. ♥

Sounds like you are on track again girl! Hope you can keep it up...we are with you!
That statement about the tough times and going back to the way you were or change and grow hits a chord...hehehe....
I vote for changing and growing!
enjoy the rest of the weekend-
The new Oxygen isn't up here yet...darn it! Hopefully some time this week!
