Health comes first

Confessions.

I look in the mirror everyday and tell myself "I like the way I look"....naked.

Yup. I actually do that.

At first it was horrifying (at least I felt like it was), and I had a hard time doing it. But let me tell you, I am actually okay with my body.

I have got curves, and I am a little "soft" but thats not really what bothers me...now.

My health is what terrifies me.

A few nights ago I was having some night time anxiety, and when Tom woke up to ask what was going on all I could think about was "I don't want to die because of somthing that I have control over but don't do anything about."

My last doctor visit we spent some time discussing my weight in relation to my health. Very bluntly she told me that if I lost the weight that my future health would be significantly better, not to mention being proactive could reduce future problems (goodbye risk of diabetes!). There is nothing more grounding than a verbal whooping by an M.D. <- This seems to be a trend with my recent medical visits..hmmm.

It's no secret that I am not the best at taking care of my body the way it should be (or wants to be) so this is a big goal.

Next topic: a life coaches approach to finding and reaching your goals. This ones fantastic!

Much love.
