• I woke up this morning feeling rather determined.
  I wake up motivated most mornings but today
  something different stirred up inside of me. You
  see, Ive been slowing growing (and not because
  Im pregnant ??). Lets be honest, Im growing
  because I cant stop eating. Ive blamed
  Covid-19, because, havent we all. I mean all
  that quarantine and spare time on our hands,
  whats a girl left to do but cook and eat! Ive
  blamed my husband for bringing home chocolate. I
  mean it is his fault Im eating chocolate every
  night.
• Ive blamed winter because its simply too cold
  to get up and go walking or go to the gym. Ive
  blamed my business because my passion is food,
  right? So, Im constantly recipe creating,
  cooking and obviously eating all my creations.
• And then I tried to convince myself that the
  scales were wrong, perhaps my clothes had shrunk.
  I questioned was my size so important after all.
  And then Id tell myself, Well, you are in your
  mid- 40s, this is a natural progression to middle
  age, right?

• Im laughing as I type this! Five months of this
  going on in my head and Im exhausted. So today I
  made a choice. Either embrace the changing shape
  and size of Fiona (believe me that was definitely
  an option) or make a change that was important to
  me. No more noise inside my head.
• No more questions and negative self talk. And
  this is the reason that today I woke up
  determined. Determined to do what is right of me.
  Determined to focus on my health and wellness.
• And determined to stop making excuses for what I
  know to be the truth. I know Im not the first
  one to struggle with weight and body image. Our
  body is an incredible temple and we really need
  to be kinder and gentler with ourselves. Well, I
  know I do. So today, I am making changes.
• Not because I want to see a magic number on the
  scales. Not because I worry about what people
  will think about my body and size.

• Not because I want to see a magic number on the
  scales. Not because I worry about what people
  will think about my body and size. Today I choose
  to eat less and move more.
• Today I choose to get fit and strong. Today I
  choose to feel more confident in my own skin.
  Today I choose energy over exhaustion. Today I
  choose love. I know it wont be easy.
• I know Ill want that chocolate at the end of a
  busy day, and that delicious, big bowl of pasta
  for dinner. But I know that if I put me first,
  Ill always choose whats right for me.
