OMG!!!!  We are at Day one on this new journey Empowering Women To Be Healthy And Confident!!!  We will do another year long journey blogging daily to keep ourselves going.  I am so very excited about this. 

Today I am at 208 lbs. feeling like a million bucks.  I know that this next journey we are embarking on is going to be great.  I want to have the focus on being healthy and empowering ourselves to be the greatest version of ourselves.  How cool is that?

Pay close attention to the inspiration I picked for today...We are only in competition with ourselves; No ONE ELSE!  We are keeping all eyes on ourselves and what we are doing to better our lives.  When we are not competing, we are only doing what is best for us.  We do not put ourselves in any position that will hurt us or set us back.  Only then will our confidence grow and become unstoppable.

Have an amazing Saturday my friends....Day 1....I love it.  Until we meet again.

Good morning everyone!  I can't believe it has been 1 year today since this blog was started and we have been on this journey.  I started out at 230 lbs. and I am down to 208 lbs.  I had lost and gained throughout the process about another 20 lbs.  I am forever grateful to be at 208 lbs.

This is what this blog has been all about.  Helping myself and women across the world be confident in who we are as a whole no matter what shape or size we are. 

Look at all the miracles you have seen and created through this whole process.  My miracle is that I am 208 and not 230...I am at a size 16 and not at a size 20 or 22 pending on the clothes.... 

This blog has been so amazing for me.  I can't even express all that I have learned about myself.  I have become such a confident women in everything that I do.  I can truly say that I absolutely love my whole self.  I can say that this journey has been a life changing experience for me, and I hope it has been for all of you out there reading this blog.

Tomorrow we are starting a new year on a new journey....It will be called Day 1 on Empowering Women to be Healthy and Confident.  So take today and enjoy every bit of your success and tomorrow starts a whole new chapter. 

Until we meet again my friends.  I have enjoyed every bit of being a part of your lives.

Good morning my dear friends....I hope you are all doing well on this beautiful Thursday!!! 

Today I want to you think about how successful you have been on this journey.  I want you to think about all the struggles, ups and downs you went through and never gave up.  I want you to look at this journey no matter where you are at; look at it as being successful!

We are all mothers in one sense or another.  Each and every one of us has gone through a lot on this journey.  You should acknowledge all that you have been through and you never gave up.  That is amazing! 

Tomorrow will be one full year of this journey.  Every day we picked ourselves up and kept going no matter what.  Some steps were big and other steps were small...what important is that you kept making the steps.

Today, seriously think about all that you went through and all your successes.  Acknowledge them and reward yourself for all that you have done for yourself.  YOU TRULY DESERVE IT!

Tomorrow will be the last blog for this journey.  We will start another journey on Saturday....stay turned to find out the title of our next adventure!!!!

Have an amazing day...until we meet again.

BELIEVE!  That is the word of the day.  Believe in yourself! 

When someone tells me that they believe in me, I get all warm and fuzzy inside.  It always makes me feel important; like I can conquer anything I put my mind too. 

Think about it....even when I tell someone I believe in them...I truly mean it.  I still feel all warm and fuzzy inside. 

This is something that is so important to practice every day.  Look in the mirror, deep into your own eyes and tell yourself you believe in you!  It actually is bringing tears to me of inspiration.  To many times we get ready for our day and never really look at ourselves.  We think about what is going on, what is about to go on and the long list of things to do.  But if we took one moment to tell ourselves we believe in us...can you imagine how that will set your day. 

Try it...see what happens...I am already inspired to take on my successful and busy day.  Until we meet again my friends.

Happy Memorial Day to all the Veterans out there...thank you so much for your service, we could not live the lives that we do without you!!!

Today's quote is about acceptance and it is so important that we accept ourselves.  We have all been made very differently.  God did not want us all to look and be exactly the same.  However, it is okay to want to be healthier and live the best life possible. 

Today, Accept your Self.  Love your Self, do not judge or be mean to your Self.  You don't deserve it!  YOU DESERVE THE BEST CARE POSSIBLE!!!  YOU CAN ONLY GET THAT FROM YOU!!!

Have an amazing day!!!  Until we meet again.

Good morning my friends....and what a beautiful Sunday morning it is.  Take in a deep breath of the fresh air and sunshine...you will have an amazing day. 

We are at day 360...can you believe it?  Today I wanted to talk about no matter where you are at in your journey don't give up.  Some of us may be right on task and that is amazing.  I am so proud of you...others may be going a bit slower...I am definitely on that boat.  However, no matter where you are at it is perfect.  Some of us don't have much to get over and others may have a little more to get over.  Either way, where you are at in your journey is perfect.

The biggest thing is never quit.  Never quit on yourself.  You are the absolute most important person in your life.  If you give up on yourself you will never be able to help another.  You are the one who will be able to help and teach others.  No matter how difficult your journey is, you are the teacher to help another get through a tougher journey for someone else. 

We are all teachers believe it or not.  No matter what you may be thinking of yourself, you are a very important person to many around you.  Have you ever stop to consider what will happen to the ones around you when you are gone?  Think about it..........YOU ARE IMPORTANT!  You can never quit yourself.  If you quit, others will quit themselves as well....it will be like a domino effect.  What we do in our lives allows others to have the confidence to continue in their lives.   HOW AWESOME IS THAT.  I bet you did not realize how powerful you are.

Today if you need to go slow, go slow....Don't ever quit.  I am not going anywhere; I will continue this blog.  I will change the title, but we are going on another year long journey.  We have six more days my friends.....lets finish and start a new journey together.

Have an amazing Sunday!!!  Until we meet again.

Day 359 on our weight release journey!!!

Good morning my friends and what at beautiful day it is.  I think Old Man Winter has finally vacated the season.  I love it when the sun is shining, the temperatures are up and the animals are all out being very busy.  The sounds of spring are so soothing.

Today I choose!  I am choosing for my entire life.  We can be on as many journeys and have many hopes and dreams; but if we don't choose we will never achieve or receive. 

This is what I want you and myself to think about.  What is it that we are truly choosing for ourselves?  Do we choose a great journey with lots to learn and achieve or are we choosing to suffer and be miserable?  Think about it............I have been choosing both, sometimes more suffering than anything.

Today I choose to be happy, successful, healthy and fit into cute beautiful clothes.  I choose to inspire and brighten up every room I walk into.  I choose to motivate myself and others who truly want to know what it feels like to make a difference in the world.  I choose to make sure I am already fulfilled and do not feel like I am missing out on food and drink that does not serve me.  I choose to be the best person I can be no matter what comes my way. 

What do you choose?  That is a very important question.  Until we meet again my friends.

Keep going my friends...your journey is so important.  Look back and appreciate all that you have gone through and all that you are accomplishing. 

As I look back I have grown so much.  I have had many ups and downs through this process and I am sure it will continue.   Today I feel amazing!  I know that no matter what I have already accomplished so much.  Just to know that I have been blogging for almost a year is incredibly amazing to me.  I have the power to do anything that I set my mind too and so do you.

Keep going strong on your journey my friends....I can't wait to see what is in store for us next.  We have 8 days left on this journey; let's make it an amazing finish. 

Soon our next journey will start....what shall we title it?  I will send a skinny wrap to the one who has the best title to our next journey. 

Until we meet again.

Day 356 on our weight release journey!!!

Hello my friends...It is so beautiful out today...the temperature is amazing with the sun shining bright.  I love the spring.

One thing about being on a journey is you have your ups and downs.  When you are up it is so easy to keep going...however when you are down it's hard to keep your head focused on what you want. 

Sometimes when our yesterday's are filled with the junk we tend to bring them in to our todays.  Who knows what I am talking about?  I can't tell you how many times I have let setbacks and failures dictate how my day is going.  I have gotten a lot better, but it definitely takes a lot of practice.  When we are living in the old habits on a journey that is so important to us, we really need to start making changes that will allow us to succeed. 

Here's the thing; we are going to keep falling back and stumbling, the trick is to pick ourselves up and not worry about it.  We need to keep our focus straight ahead and not worry about what happened yesterday.   We need to learn from our mistakes for sure but not dwell and beat ourselves up.  God gives us do-overs if we are lucky.  If we are able to wake up after our slumber, then we get a do-over...the question is how are you going to use it?  Are you going to waste it by feeling sorry for yourself or are you going to put a smile on your face and try it again?  These are the questions to ask yourself.  Countless times I spent my do-overs feeling sorry for myself and being all depressed.  It did not get me anywhere other than more days of waste. 

Remember, God did not give us a book on how to live life when we were born.  We have to figure it out until all our lessons for this life has been learned.  We get to make our mistakes and try again, we get to succeed and get rewarded, and we are able to experience life in so many ways.  No one person's life is the same to another; remember that!  We all have our own paths, journey and life experiences.  What one person experiences the next will experience it different.  None of us are the same, and we will never have the same experience.  What works for one, will not work for the other.  I think this is what gets us stuck sometimes....we need to keep our blinders on and keep pressing on.

This is what I have for today....I love these blogs; I learn so much from what I write because I am ultimately talking and teaching myself.  I hope that each and everyone of you has an amazing day.  Until we meet again.

Good afternoon my friends...I hope everyone is having an amazing day!!!

Today I wanted to chat about being uncomfortable.  When we are on an important journey, many times we find ourselves very uncomfortable.  We start to panic, get nervous; we are not sure what to do.  Sometimes we revert to old habits or we just push through and are successful. 

I feel that success is about feeling uncomfortable; showing yourself no matter what you can do it.  However, I find myself sometimes reverting back, and that is okay too.  We need to sometimes relearn or go back a step or two before the success breaks wide open for us. 

Always know you are important and whatever your part in this world is, you are the only person who can do it.  God made each and every one of us very special...we need to know that we are Confident, Beautiful, Strong, Smart, Powerful in every way.  Let your radiance shine as bright as you can.  All of your work and efforts are paying off...you just need to BELIEVE!!!

Have an amazing day my friends.  Until we meet again.

Rita

    I have been through a lot in my life just as everyone else; I have found that what I have gone through has always been for my highest good.  There is not a thing that I would change in my life; I would keep the good, the bad, and the ugly.

    Sharing my lessons with you helps me to be the best version of myself.  What I have learned, I share so you are the best version of yourself.  

    When we stand together we are strong and tall making a more confident and loving world.  We are forgiving our past and embracing all that is learned.  We then are teaching our children to be human and the best version of themselves.
