the dreaded frenemy...the scale

Yeah I said frenemy...if you don't know this term well then you must not be an avid abc family fan such as myself. I'm cool like that and you should be way jealous! So....I don't know about some of you...but I'm kind of a scale-aholic....it is for reals an addiction I have...but I have decided to use it to my advantage. Today I had the dreaded "wellness" exam for the lovely but not so friendly insurance company. I sucked it up and did it..I wasn't quite ready for my Dr to see my "number" yet because well I've just started my journey and I'm not at the "number" I want. Now, with that said..I realize its not always about the numbers, but you have to start somewhere. After seeing my "number" at the Dr's office today, I have vowed to never EVER be at that number again. I have set my mini goals so that they are attainable, after all you don't want to set yourself up for failure, but if I reach my goals before hand, I will just create another one. I know I stated that the scale is my frenemy, but sometimes I really believe I am my own worst "frenemy". I'm sure some of you out there can relate. Well its time to stop, bare with me, this shit's about to get real! Asking ourselves to live up to models and celebrities on the covers of magazines is absolutely ridiculous...why you may ask...because they themselves can't live up to that garbage! Why do we do this to ourselves, to our daughters, friends, just women in general. Now I'm not saying that there aren't ppl out there women especially who don't look SMOKIN hot, but I can promise you they work their hiney's off! LITERALLY. So that is what I am going to do, no more excuses, no more food is my friend, guess what my aesics are my new friend, I am going to be my friend...because I'm awesome...just kidding..but seriously I kinda am, you should know me if you don't already. I digress, I'm sure for some of you that was painfully funny, others just painful. Give yourself and indulgence, and no I don't mean a gallon of ice cream in one sitting, but you could have a bowl of REGULAR ice cream, in its portion. I seriously want to buy those portion control kitchen tools I found on Amazon. When did we go from eating meals at home, that were home cooked, yummy, but still good for you? Oh yeah, when we all had to get jobs! Well guess what I  refuse to think that I can't work and be healthy AND eat damn good food. You can too, if that's a priority for you, if not, then why are you still here? you have got to be bored to tears (thanks for staying anyway) Ok, I'm done talking like a sailor for now, its not lady like but quite honestly I feel like letting myself get to this point was not very lady like of me either. So here's to actually sticking with the healthy lifestyle...for LIFE...I know I can do this and so can you, just give yourself real expectations. In a year I expect to be close if not at my goal weight. So grab your best frenemy and say BRING IT Bizatch, You are going DOWN! Thanks for stopping by and reading my two cents ;)
