So some of the people close to me know I am currently working on changing the person I am to achieve a goal I have set for me around my weight & health in 2023.
Every day, at the end of the day I have a conversation with a friend and send them a tick emoji if I achieved my daily goals and am happy with how it’s gone. Y’all know I’m a chatter so he doesn’t just get one emoji, it’s a whole daily overview of my day 🤣
Today I woke up and I had that tight anxiousness in my chest and the feeling in the pit of my stomach that I get, it’s unexplainable and it’s uncontrollable. But let me say, the work I’ve been doing to help rewrite my brain and subconscious thoughts really helped today in those moments. I TRULY had no idea if today was gonna be the day that broke me but I was determined for that not to be & to break that cycle!
The awareness of what was happening, the ability to basically name what I was feeling and that allowed me to take back control instead of letting my anxious thoughts fully invade and take over.
I am not in any way saying that the above was easy, but what I can tell you is that I did it and that is what matters the most. Anxiety isn’t rational & will I win next time? I don’t truly know… what I do know is today I won the battle & by winning I stayed on the course.
My nutrition was a ✅
My mindset was a ✅
I didn’t let my anxiety ruin me ✅
Because:
– I am in total control of my situation
– I am deserving of investing in the person I want to be
– I will put myself first so I am able to help those around me even more
– I am extremely happy and grateful that I am fit and healthy and am the role model to my children that I always dreamed of being
So for today I just want to say, if you want something for your life & want to make a change, it’s possible but you just have to want it bad enough.
I’m always here if anyone wants an ear or shoulder ❤️ if you made it this far, thanks for reading!
