Been thinking a lot lately. I have been so wrapped up in the thought of losing weight that I forget important things sometimes. I found myself chewing myself out. "Why was it so easy last time?" Well, duh, I was simply losing pregnancy pounds, it came off in 3 months once I decided to work on it. Started when baby was 9 months old, by she was 1 year old I was 5 sizes smaller!

This time around, I have a lot of health to rebuild. I need to remember that. A lot of, if not most of, this weight has nothing to do with pregnancy even though there were two pregnancies in the time frame. I need to focus on rebuilding my health much more and not simply getting smaller.

Silly me, I knew that but sometimes we get wrapped up in an idea don't we? Maybe we feel pressure to get there already, I know I have. Just too busy with everything else to sort out my own thoughts and emotions at times. But I have been reading a lot again lately and it is all very encouraging books. That is the type of thing I need to be feeding my brain, good words, good thoughts, healthy movement and good food. The rest will follow.

I have to take the time to make the time for myself to get healthy and then I will be better focused in every thing.
