“The Promise You Make to Yourself.”<\/a> I’m going to try and write in my own words but might have accidentally borrowed from her ideas! Now, this doesn’t mean you can just start reading her blog instead of mine! (Even though her hubby is as good looking as mine)<\/p>\nPeople ask me how to lose weight all the time.\u00a0 They think there is a magic answer or a quick fix that will allow them to get on the same path as me.\u00a0 While it does come down to eating right and getting active, there’s more to it than that.\u00a0 It’s about the promise you’ve made to yourself.\u00a0 At the end of the day, when you’re lying in bed and thinking through the day, you only have yourself to answer to.\u00a0 I of course made a promise to my hubby that I’d lose the weight.\u00a0 But I’d made this promise before and failed.\u00a0 He’s admitted that he never really expected me to do it because I hadn’t in the past.\u00a0 If I hadn’t done it, life would have gone on the same.\u00a0 He wouldn’t have held me accountable to what I said with crazy consequences like getting a divorce.\u00a0 He would have encouraged me and tried to keep my on track.\u00a0 However, he more than anyone knows I’m the only one that can make myself do anything.<\/p>\n
I knew I owed it to myself and that’s why I made a promise to myself.\u00a0 I wanted the results of weight loss. I wanted other women to be jealous! I wanted to wear yoga pants in public.\u00a0 I wanted to give my hubby all the years I could.\u00a0 I wanted all the time I could get with our future child.\u00a0 That’s the promise I made to myself, to be the best I could be so I’d have more of myself to give to others.\u00a0 That’s the promise I kept to myself.\u00a0 I feel that letting yourself down is worse than letting others down.\u00a0 In the end there’s just you.\u00a0 Have to made decisions today you can be happy with? Are you fighting a battle on the inside? Make a promise to yourself today that you can keep!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
One of my favorite trainers on TV is Chris Powell.\u00a0 I have been watching his show, Extreme Weight Loss, for my entire journey and find is extremely inspiring and often see elements of myself in their clients.\u00a0 Chris constantly posts about his wife, Heidi Powell, who is also a trainer and regularly featured on the … <\/p>\n

<\/a> Why? She’s freaking gorgeous, returned to the show just weeks after giving birth, could probably kick my ass and let’s face it: she gets to do it with Chris Powell.\u00a0 (And that just doesn’t seem fair!)![\"143910a7d5d2cc2e198fc7e2516d9850\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/yogapantsdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/143910a7d5d2cc2e198fc7e2516d9850.jpg\")
