Goodbye to Winter

Are you sick and tired of winter?
​
Are you sick and tired of COVID?

Winter and COVID seem connected.  They both cause us to stay inside and go inward, while spring and the vaccine encourages us to release what we were carrying and spread our wings to fly.

Are you carrying extra weight, unhealthy relationships, bad habits or anything else unnecessary?

I realized that in the past year, I had put on a few pounds.  I had even attempted to lose a few pounds but was discouraged at my slow progress.  I became comfortable with where I was at (not gaining anymore) but finally realized I wanted to be lighter and to have my clothing fit more comfortably.

I grappled for about 3 weeks with committing or not.  I didn’t want to do something from the place of “I should” and I realized I had developed several bad habits.  These included: eating chocolate several times a day, eating saltines with no awareness of the portion size, slathering toast with butter, etc.  These are habits I know would lead to more weight gain.

Finally I pulled the plug and signed up for a 6-month program on Weight Watchers.  The first 3 days were tough.  I was hungry.  However by the 4th day, I felt good.  I felt powerful and in control and my middle felt smaller.  

The 10 pounds I want to get rid of may take awhile but I know the focus on being in control will make a positive difference in many areas of my life.

What could you take on that would give you a sense of accomplishment, empowerment or pride?

• Losing weight
• Getting in shape
• Releasing an unhealthy relationship
• Making new friends
• Reading more
• Writing
• Calendaring and sticking with it

If you come up with something, it’s something you want to do even if your next thoughts are:

• “I don’t really want to do that.”
• “It will take too much time or money.”
• “I’ll probably fail again.”
• “It’s too hard.”
• “I’m no good at X,Y, or Z.”

The average person listens to those thoughts as though they were true.
The extraordinary person, hears those thoughts, thanks them for sharing, and makes a plan.
