Why am I obsessed?

So yesterday during church I was pondering and the thought came to me, "Why am I so obsessed with eating, my weight, exercising?" It stressing me out all the time. If I don't get a workout in I am sure I will gain 10 pounds. It is kind of frustrating. I want to be healthy but not be so consumed with it that I am miserable. I think that I was fat for most of my life and I don't want to go back there. I like being healthy and happy. I know how it feels to feel really great. Taylor also pointed out that any Tolman outing/get together is planned around food. Food is usually the first thing we plan. Why is that? An interesting thought. SO I am working on being healthy without being obsessive. Good luck to me!

  1. You can do it Lisa! You are a strong woman and you will be able to accomplish anything that you set your mind to. If you aren't stressing about it all the time, your stress hormone levels won't be so high and you will have a better weight loss and a happier life. At least that is what my health book says! hahaha Thanks for being my workout buddy!

  2. You can do it Lisa! You are right, food is a focus in all Tolman gatherings. It is stressful always worrying about excersing and eating right. I know we can break this cycle so our kids will not have these same issues.
