I love this GreenTealael! This is exactly how I felt looking at those muffins.

Day 2 I did a burpee and I liked it! No junk food today. My favorite characteristic about myself is my stomach. I've always had a flat stomach even at 232 lbs. Now if the rest of me could catch up with the stomach! LOL

Mine would be my widows peak in my front hairline, I used have a strawberry birthmark right below that,but it has faded with time but if I geel flushed it does magically reappears some. Others would be my lips and ? smile, it usually is sincere and honest, cause I usually am a happy little camper! Incidentally one of my Aussie penpals I sent my picture to, @Ummyasmin, told me my eyes are the same shade as a Dingo Dog, should this please or offend me? Never knew which way to think!???

So for day 2, reality has kind of slapped me in the face. I am not the young girl who, when I last weighed this much, was working out twice a day. My muscles are nonexistent and I'm having to start from scratch. So February goals have changed to: the no junk food challenge, Feb Ab challenge, and self love. With that, running, and my weekly hikes it'll be hard to not be overwhelmed. For today's self love - I chose my "Care bear cheeks" they run in my family from my moms side. I got teased for them all the time and use to hate them, but now I love them!20190202_201317.jpeg

Jan. 3rd:

Personality traits- Cunning/fortitude/endurance.

I don't like to let myself down or give up and certainly not easily. I will rework, reorder, realign and change directions twice but end goal is always in mind. I'm always thinking about the future.

I will try a plank today

  • Popular Post
Me too RoRo Kitty, afraid I'll eventually look l7ke a fat bellied spider, thin legs , thinner arms, and a garbage gut! Do hope I prove me wrong. I would love to do a Plank but with a plate and 12 screws in right upper arm, a PICC line in my upper left arm, I don't see it happening. My beleagured upper limbs just have to be excused from that task. But there are plenty of February options I can participate in and feel proud I met them!

Fave facial feature & body part: eyes and eyelashes

I'm hoping to progress to the point of loving more parts of my body from the neck down. I'm getting there! I can really appreciate how strong my legs/butt are getting, but love them? Not quite yet...

Late night pic after a fun party, first time since surgery; pretty fun last night, not so much this morning

Day 3

Super bowl Sunday. Temptation is everywhere! JUNK food is everywhere!!!

No junk food challenge is a challenge today! Drinking a lot of flavored water!

Love yourself challenge- one personality trait that I like about myself is my sense of humor.
