I have suffered from social anxiety and depression for many years.

Although I am in therapy, I still find it very hard to open up and express how I'm feeling. Having this blog serves as a daily inspiration for me to try and keep a positive outlook on life.

2012 will bring a new outlook on life. I am vowing to eat healthy, exercise and lose 50 lbs by July 1st.

~ Stay calm, be happy and notice the beauty in the world around you ~

1st Week Weigh In

So I weighed in today and lost my weekly goal of 2 pounds. For some reason I got a little down on myself afterwards because, even though 2 was my goal, I was hoping the loss would be more. Then I realized this isn’t going to happen overnight. The weight needs to come off in a healthy way. 

I have to say the first couple days of getting on that bike was pure hell. I promised myself 1 hour on the bike everyday but 20 minutes into the first ride my knees ached, my hips hurt and I was out of breath. But I did not give up. I have kept my promise to myself. And I intend to see this through.

The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but thought about it. Be aware of the thoughts you are thinking. Separate them from the situation, which is always neutral. It is as it is.
