Happy Friday!

Yea!  It's Friday!

In my last post, I wrote about what is different about this time.  One of the biggest things I notice, is that I am not doing this alone.  I have people on board with me, helping me...even if they don't know that they are helping!

My health coach is also the team leader of the challenge I am doing.  She has been sending us videos every single day.  Yes....every...single...day!  Today's video was all about what I have been talking about....getting help and support.  No one should have to do this alone, and we are not doing it alone!  I love that I have been watching these videos and that I feel so comfortable with he,r that I would not hesitate to call or text her.  I am finding that if I am struggling with something, I look on the Healthy Games page and read comments, or some of the readings they offer, or I go on Youtube and watch a video or two that my coach, or others, have put out there.  I feel I have a ton of support....even if it is from people I only know on Facebook, or the challenge, I don't feel alone!

When I was driving home from work yesterday, I found myself saying something weird.  I was saying, "I am happy."  Imagine that, HAPPY!  I am feeling better about myself as a woman.  I am feeling better about myself as a wife and mom.  I am feeling better about myself as a teacher.  Is is because Medifast has some magic in their products that are making me feel better, or is it because I am feeling more in control, that things are starting to fall into place?  Is it a little of both?  Who knows, but one thing that I do know, is that when I am more in charge of what I am eating, I am happier all around.  That is a good thing!!

So, happy Friday everyone!  Make sure you are using the support that is there....because it is there if you look!

Have a great weekend!
