Come on buddies…light my FIRE!!! Gonna set my heart on F-I-R-E!!!!!
Writing back to someone that commented on one of my blogs. I had an epiphany. Maybe, if I stay here, and read and encourage, maybe…it will re-light my fire! I am like a hunk of cold coal or charcoal that once burned bright! Soooooo maybe your hot healthy flames will leap into my heart and I will get on fire again!
I heard someone say that when a log is in the fire, it stays hot, and will keep on burning for a looong looong time…but when it rolls out of the fire, it will easily go out! I need you guys!!!! You hold the matches that will relight the desire burning in my heart…and help me start to burn the fat off my body again! So come on buddies, light my fire!
Another ah-ha moment for me this week is…simple, yet, for me…profound really. All this time…I thought I was just fat…but actually, I am full of energy! Really, I am like a big container of fuel. 1/2 of me is stored calories. Fuel reserves if you think about it. If 1 pound = 3500 cals, I have about 350000 extra of them in my body…soooooo. I need to burn them! I can’t just deplete them, because then the body wants to store more…counter productive. I need to eat, and work out…but most importantly…I need to turn my body into a lean, mean, fuel burning machine. THAT needs to be my focus, to become an athlete! Like the people on biggest loser. They are working out like crazy…and the weight loss is incredible. And they get in trouble if they don’t eat enough… Bob and Jillian are on to something…
I HAVE to eat enough calories to keep my fire stoked…and then exercise enough to burn the energy, more exercise…the more weight loss…that is it!
Sooooo does anyone anyone out there have a match I can borrow? I’m just a vessel of fuel waiting for someone to light my FIRE!!!!! So I can be HOT again: )!
wow…. I can feel your energy oozing from your blog…. keep that going girlie!!!
Keep it up!! YOU CAN DO IT! Get yourself hooked!
Tosses a lit match–burn baby burn!! You can so do this girl!! You just set your focus on getting this done and dont let anything stop you!! Dont let the blues or lack of motivation stop you from getting out there and getting it done. We have sunshine, breezes and birds are singing-everything is blooming–get out there and work your heart out girl & you will bloom too!!!
“Momma always said, “Don’t play with matches cause if you do you’ll have to sleep in the bathtub cause you’ll wet the bed!” My best Forrest Gump impression! LOL
Wow, the amount of passion and engery from your blog has caused me to get warm and fuzzy. I know it gets frustrating and depression sets in sometimes with concrete anchors but, lady you got something that ought to be bottled and sold to OPEC! I read your words and they inspire me to do better and be moreso. So thank you. Also, you are pretty easy on the eyes if you don’t mind me saying.
I know you can do it, your words and thrill tell me that. But it is good to know that the people here are only a post away when times get tough. Have a good day and a better journey.
Being here to encourage others is motivating, and reading other people’s blogs makes me want to keep going and help others get there too.
Nice blog Chrisie… I can feel the heat! Put another log on the fire, we all need a spark to re-light us sometimes.
I am feelin’ the HEAT…keep it coming!!!!!
Last night I had 2 muffins and started into a 3rd…and I couldn’t finish the 3rd one, got full and almost felt sick just thinking about finishing it. IT’s WORKING! My desire to binge is also leveling off…so keep tossing your matches my way!!!!
Burn body burn!!!!!
