I had one of those wake up call moments the other day. I had someone say (supposedly they were joking) that I had a huge butt. Ouch. It was like a stab through the heart.
However, it was a wake up call too. I've been messing around with getting healthy but nothing concrete, really in the last year.
Sometimes (at least for me) the best motivation comes from those who don't even realize that they are motivating me. But the best motivation comes from within.
Bottom line, I'm really tired of living like this and not making the changes necessary. I'm tired of being tired. I'm really tired of staring at my closet wistfully.
And I'm really tired of hearing things like, you have such a pretty face (which is code for too bad you are fat). I'm in my 40's now, and the choices I make here will be impacting me for years to come. If I don't take care of my body now, I will be dealing with the consequences in my golden years. I don't want to be riding around a grocery store in a power chair, I want to be doing yoga.
I want to be fierce.
