Bermuda triangle

This is how my tridiva coach would put it, the holdiays: Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Eve, when there around the body supposedly looses to the dark bermuda triangle of food. But I don't see things that way. Since being in the Tridiva club, I've found that anything is possible. Thru motivation and discpline, you can just about do anything you want. And it feels very empowering when you do. I'm not saying jump off a bridge with a jumpy cord attached to you (unless you're into that sort of thing), but just saying yes, I can exercise outside when it's in the 50 degree temps, or yes I can swim at night in an outdoor pool with lights, or run on a high school track with other ladies in the dark (by the way, that tests all your senses!). And then, yes, I can paint a painting, make an exotic food dish (to me exotic if pork tenderloins with apricot chutney roasted), and help my boys' do their homework. And still rest and read a book if I want to satisfy my soul. It's getting in a positive mindset and saying, "yes I can do that and I will" and feel good about yourself. I've recently loved the new excitement over the Zumba classes at Tone and the attendance to the Weight Watchers club. It makes me want to go to the classes as well. These ladies are having fun meeting, granted, it's in the honeymoon stage, but I can see this going on for quite awhile and the ladies being successful at it. It takes movitation thru "sisterhood" and I think it comes from each other just being together and doing the same things. Everyone supports one another and that's the key right there to doing the possible. So Bermuda triangle, bring it on. We're ready for whatever the holidays bring us, and I think we'll all be pleasantly surprised. In other words, you won't melt or die, get out and move, walk with your friend, hike with buddies, play ping pong with family. Whatever it is that gets you going, that's it! And we overdo it at the appetizer table, don't knock yourself. Just bounce back and say I'm good, it won't be like this tomorrow. Happy Holidays and breathe....Luv ya Loni.
