Its all about ME!!!
Tonight I went to WW meeting. I didn't really want to stay but didn't really want to go home either...so I stayed and am so happy that I did. The discussion was about making time for ourselves. Christine had a jar that she filled with marbles representing all the things we do for others. She then tried to fit in 3 golf balls that represented things we do for ourselves..they wouldn't fit! We discussed the importance of putting our own needs on our list of things to do. At the end, Christine emptied the jar and refilled it, but this time she put the golf balls in first, and then the marbles. Everything fit. The point is that we are happier and can fulfill our roles better when we take time to take care of ourselves. I don't do that as well as I would like to but it is something I am definately going to work on! As part of that goal, this week I am going to pen my exercise schedule into my planner and make sure that it is a priority rather than an after thought.

I am so proud of you. You really need to take the time for yourself. Once you do that it is easier to take care of everyone else. I know when I workout and loose weight I feel so much better about me. You are amazing and I am excited for you.
