I swear I am always a happy camper and always loving my life. Honestly I think I need to go to the Dr. to see why I am never moody or never ornery…weird I know..especially weird because I am a female. I guess it could be a number of things that make me soooo happy:

First and foremost I got my ass up early on a Saturday morning to do yoga…but I was super energized so I opted out of that idea and worked shoulders and back instead…and just got a freaking killer workout in….to top it off I still had energy after so I went roller blading…it relaxes me to put my headphones on and get in my zone.

Second, I cleaned my house from top to bottom..she looks good..I mean talk about sparking spic and span!! Not only am I happy that I have a clean house..but everyday I am so greatfull to be an independant woman. I don’t know many 23 (almost 24) year old women that own a house. I still don’t know why or how I did it but damn I love it. To know that I can afford my own bills with a nice house, nice car, decent things and do it on my own..is AMAZING!! Not that there is anything wrong with women that have a man in their life to help…I just appreciate my life and my situation.

Third, I just got home from a nice sushi dinner with my sister. It definately hit the spot..and I love every minute I get to spend with my sister/best friend..we just have a riot when we get together…she puts a smile on my face everyday.

Fourth, it is still the weekend and I have another day to do nothing…I have no idea what is in store for tomorrow, I am just glad it doesn’t involve working.

Well I’m just sitting here in my living room watching the movie 300 (having this feeling of euphoria, and drooling over the killer abs in this movie) I think I will call it a night.

Do you ever wish that you looked different?? Wish you were taller, had a different body type, whatever the reason?? Well for many years I always questioned myself and was so mad that I didn’t have this or didn’t have that, in my physical appearance. After many years of not liking my body I have finally come to the realization that, I am who I am. I use to always flip the Victoria’s Secret catalogue and think..”oh I would love to look like them”. I always wanted to be tall, skinny, slim and slender. Instead I was always short, stocky, muscular and had a little more junk in my truck then they did. It took many years to finally come to the terms that I am built this way; God gave me this body for a reason. I haven’t always loved myself, in fact I use to hate my body and my legs and my butt… I could go on an on. There are still things I wouldn’t mind to change..but that is why I work so hard..to make the best out of this body that I can. I think I look good..I am not as skinny as I was 3-5 years ago, but then again I was young and still growing and had a faster metabolism. I can say that I am a lot healthier and I feel the best I EVER have in my life. I have a great satisfaction now because I feel so healthy. When I eat crappy foods and when I don’t workout, I can honestly feel it. I feel unhealthy for a few days after, until I get back in my groove and back on track. If you have a positive attitude about your goals and your body good things will follow and you will be happier and you WILL achieve your goals! 

So the bottom line is..it’s not how skinny you are it’s how you feel about yourself and being comfortable with your body and in your own skin and the health benefits that go with all of it.
