Showing Up Differently

Is it Time???

Now that January is over and New Year's Resolutions have 
been completely abandoned, isn't "It Time" to sit down and 
do a real assessment of what's really not working and 
change it???

That's basically what I had to do last year when I woke up
one morning and realized that nothing FIT.

And...I'm not talking just about my clothes.

Nothing in my life was "Fitting" quite the way it should
and somewhere deep down inside I knew that EVERYTHING
that wasn't working right was a result of my own body image.

Since 2009 I had easily gained 10 lbs. per year and I refused to 

buy another piece of clothing that was over a size 12.

Proving that pain is the biggest motivator, I made a 
commitment on January 1, 2013 to "Show Up Differently" 
by Christmas. 

I set a goal to lose 50 lbs. in one year.

This Christmas I gave myself that Gift.

Although the scale shows only a 40 lb. drop, my clothes tell me 

it might be even a little more? 

There is nothing that feels as good as putting on clothes that 

zip up easily without a muffin top popping out somewhere.

There's a confidence that goes with the feeling of LEAN.

For me it's not important to be a fashion model and have six pack abs.

What is IMPORTANT is knowing I look great in my clothes and

that when I enter a room people look up and take notice.

I have always BELIEVED that MONEY is Attracted to Confidence 

and that CONFIDENCE is Impossible without an aligning body image.

I'm looking forward with much EXCITEMENT at 2014.

More to come......
