I really love these wise words posts. They normally turn out to be some of my favorites. I enjoy looking up all the quotes, and getting inspired by them. I find it funny that no matter what my issue of the week is, I can always find a quote that relates to it. Most of the time those quotes make me feel a bit better.
Here is the deal folks, it is time for me to get real. I was doing really well in the watching what I eat/working out at least three times a week routine for awhile. Then I slowly stopped working out, thinking that if I stuck to eating healthy it would all be a-okay. Then I started to go back to my crappy eating, and now I just feel gross and fat (so not a ploy for y'all to tell me I am beautiful. seriously). To sum it all up I am not happy with who I am, or what I look like. Instead of complaining about it I want to empower myself. I want to make good eating choices, while not depriving myself. I want to workout and enjoy the way it makes me feel. I want to try on jeans and just once look in the mirror and say, 'Damn. I look good.' I want to feel beautiful on the inside, and on the outside. Basically I want everything this quote is about...
{26.} Wise Words...
Is happy the goal? Of course it is. Is confidence the goal? You bet your ass it is. Is skinny the goal? Nope. While being a skinny Minnie would be fabulous, I just want to be healthy. I want to look in the mirror and like what I see. Not for anyone else, but just for myself. So, here goes another attempt. Wish me luck friends!

I completely relate to this. Back when we did Skinny Bitches (which I miss), I was working out and trying to eat better... and then well, life happened and I became lazy. I'm not happy with my weight or my health but it's time for me to stop the bitching and start doing. No one can change these things but me.
Here's to getting our healthy on!
& P.S. you ARE beautiful. 8)
Get out of my head! This week has been hell for me and my body image and I finally woke up today and decided that I owe it to myself to be happy with me and not to be so critical.
I love you mucho! We need to get back on the support track!
I'm in the same boat!! Let's get hot!
I love you! Do you have a link to where you got this from? I wanna put it up by my mirror!!
You can do this & I'm here if you ever need me!
xx
LOVE IT!
Mostly your blip before the quote.
But I've been feeling the same for far too long. && with my 25th coming up, I am trying to amp up my motivation to start the next quarter of my life better =]
