Once upon a time I thought I was too skinny. So I ate and ate, until I couldn't anymore. No luck. Well not literally. I didn't turn down a great healthy meal. I had my limits.
Well I went through this yo yo episode for a while. One day, I decided to visit the gym for the first time. Oh my, I fell in love. The treadmill was my best friend. The free weights were like my cousin. I found my new love. Bye Bye buffet... hello gym. You might say... oh okay so she's a fitness guru. Well I had to learn a couple of things here and there. I got a job there at one time... hooray ... you may say.... Well for me it was not so happy.
I had to show my clients how to work out, but I messed up by not giving myself limits. All of a sudden I went down to my High School weight, without knowing... Wow you may say... Well not when you are 111 pounds in high school... Well you get the picture. I went down close to that.
So I was forced to give up my best friend for a while and live on Boost and Ensures... so the cycle begins again. Up and down... up and down.
Years later my dad says, you know... you have got to love yourself for who you are. You should be your biggest fan. It took me some time, but it worked. All of a sudden, I was not concerned with what people were saying. You are too small, you are too big... to me after a while I had another problem. I became just right and the haters came after... Hello new me. Well with anything in life... blues can continue to be gone when we do everything in moderation... including the work out. When I feel people trying to tell me things that I do not like or look at me funny I just smile and keep walking.
Always remember to stay true to who you are and the blues will be gone.
