Say what............Say PUT UPS!

Hey everyone :)

        So yesterday was weigh-in, and it was just a alright one, I did not gain I just stayed the same. Nikki lost a little over a pound :) WHOOP WHOOP! Go girl!!!!! 

          So I weigh-in at 382.8 Huhhhhhhhhhhh.............Well I would like that number to change uh....SOON! 

     Anyway, while we were sitting in our meeting with the amazing Dawn! She was asking what would we like to have magically appear in our lives, and three was a good list, personal chef, personal trainer, constant motivation and confidence. 

         I would love all of those handed to me on a silver platter ;) But the one that that was on the list that I can give myself all the time was something I said which was motivation. I was sitting in the meeting thinking about how with my girls I make them respect each other and remember the good things about each other and I thought to myself, hmmm.......HOW CAN I PREACH IT WHEN I DON"T PRACTICE IT? I thought about a little thing that the girls do which is called "put ups".
         Put ups mean giving two good compliments for every one neg. thing you say about someone else, but I thought why not give them to ourselves for the neg things we say about our own personal self. I think that it is safe to say that we spend a lot of time harping on our "faults" but why not pump up are greatness???? So I think that I will and I hope that you will too. 
         I started yesterday after weigh-in, I was all day just going ugh...........you really suck for not working out etc etc.....But I stopped and I said to myself, here is a chance to do two things, 1, change the fact that I did not work out and 2, remember 2 things that I did do that made me feel good. Well slap me and call me hooker, it WORKED! I sat here at almost 11pm and then I said you know what "I am going to get my ass up and get in that living room and walk with Leslie" I did and I felt AMAZING! I mean I was going to do the 2 mile walk but I did not, I mean hell I am not trying to win the race first I am just trying to finish :) lol! I am going to work my way up to the 2 mile walk. So then it was time for my put-ups and I wanted to use something good, I did not want to say "oh you worked out" I mean duh.......I had just did it! lol!
So I started to think...............PUT UPS............OH PUT UPS.............I thought of these two:
1: I take responsibility for my food actions. 
2: I never give up on people and I am learning to never give up on me. 
    So here they are...........I like them. I am going to put myself up everyday, and I am going to make a list one with my "put-downs" and then a list with my put-ups and I am going to work on ways to change those things and to elevate the other things. 


What do you guys think? What are your put-ups? Maybe a list would work for all of us????

So yeah, if you want to leave your thoughts, I would love to read them. 

Until next time...........thanks for reading
