I don't know why I keep going back and forth and back and forth. I so want to change. I know I have made improvement. But I just don't know why I keep going back and forth. Sometimes I feel really great about it... but more times than not I go back to... maybe I'm just to messed up... I've been like this for my whole life, or as far back as I can remember, can I really learn to be something else. Do I really have it in me. I have read threw some of the Triumph posts and seeing posts of how people are doing better... and as much as I don't want to admit it... it sometimes almost makes me jealous... or even mad (at myself) like why can't i feel like that yet, how long is it going to take me to get to that point... I feel like I should be farther along than I am, I don't know more changed so to say.... I don't know I guess I just needed to get that off my chest.

I feel that way with my diet sometimes. Like, duh, why do I sabotage myself?

Just get on the horse and do it for the next hour. And then the next. And the next. Don't let yourself get too big of a timeline or it will seem impossible. And NO SHOULDING on yourself. You are where you are and that is it.

You can't eat an elephant all at once, but you can eat an elephant bite by bite.

Thanks Newrunner...
You say that abotu the time line, I didn't even think about it, but in the back of my head I think I do... I feel as though I should be great at each session when I'm done with it... and there it is the SHOULD!!!
Maybe I just needed that reminder!! Time to saddle up and ride that horse huh :) while riding I'll be sure to not take to big of a bit off that elephant so I don't fall off :)

me and my negativity... that is something I will be working on for a while... it's so easy to fall into it sometimes....

* funny thing is now when I bet when I think like that about not doing it fast enough, or not suceeding... I'm going to picture a horse and elephant to get me back on track!! **

thanks again Newrunner!!!!

No problemo, ma'am.

I do this extrapolating the time line thing ALL the time. I don't know how many times I think I've almost had a heart attack or almost had skin cancer or whatever. Even my dear husband who has no panic whatsoever suffers from this malady. I think it comes about when we skip the present. So- that is what I am working on.

Happy riding and happy eating.

:) Yes it can be so easy to skip the present... so many things to work on... it's nice to be able to look and see the things we want/need to work on... and not with fear, but with IDK motivation, determination :)

:) ohhhh happy days (:
