Think Positive

Think Positive!  
       I tend to struggle with this.  I don't know when I became so negative.  And it's only somewhat negative. With some things I'm just still super optimistic and positive.  It's really weird. I dunno!  Things that make you go hmmm... lol I need to consciously put forth more effort on being positive though, so I'm going to try!
I have so much in my life to be thankful for and happy about.  I've got a great husband, and amazing little girl and super family and friends.  Of course I don't live next door to my TFF...but who knows, maybe one day :) LOL I do want to get mine and Kel's families together again because I think the girls will have a blast - even moreso now because they're older.  I'd just love to listen to their conversations about cats. haha
WW is going well.  I weighed this morning and I'm back down to about where I was on Saturday, so that's awesome. I thought today was Thursday, but Kelly reminded me that it's not (thanks A LOT!) but that means I have even more time to get down more before my meeting on Saturday.  If I could lose 3 lbs that would be amazing.  Today a girl here at work brought in "chips and cheese" for people this afternoon.  I did log it, but I may just pass.  It's kinda a waste of points and doesn't leave me much wiggle room with my higher point dinner that I'll be having.  Dinner is a Hello Fresh meal - zuchinni & parm crusted chicken.  Yesterday's HF meal was even higher in points, but was very good.  I was giving the free trial a try - and it is awesome, just too expensive to keep up on right now. 

Postive Thoughts about Myself:

I have pretty eyes.
I am a good mom.
I am dedicated to not giving up on my health.
I am a kind person.

Okay - so this is way harder for me than it should be. I'm sitting here thinking - well, I am good at this, but then I do this.. I find myself wanting to say "I can be a kind person" rather than "I AM a kind person" because I'm not always kind. You know?  I'm going to have to really reflect on this more...reflect on ME more..  This is probably a good challenge for most people.  I could make a book listing out my faults, or where I feel I lack.  But trying to make a good list of positives in myself, is really hard. I think I don't like to think about myself.  I don't let myself think about what I really like to do, let alone what I like about myself. And I'm not being negative here. Just realizing more that I don't put myself where I should be.  I tend to put others feelings/wants/desires before my own.  That, I think, can be a good and a bad.  It's just something I need to take time for and think about more.

So that's my homework.  Make a better list of positve things about ME and a list of things that I enjoy!  Maybe not everyone struggles with this, but if you find yourself struggling, join me in the homework :)
