Just a reminder for myself...
And anyone else who needs encouragement.

With the steps [& traditions], I still need to get around the G-word.

( The Steps: )

This is part of my recovery and healing. I will read this everyday. I will work each step to the best of my ability and document the success I have with each one. If you would like, please reference my LJ singularlove as my recovery log.

I am employable.
I am designed to be healthy.
I am a beautiful woman.
I am intelligent.
I am worthy of love.
I am worthy of my own independence.
I am strong.

Two pounds lost since Saturday.
Damn determined streak. Sometimes it is very handy.
It'd be nice if another pound and a half goes by the end of the week.
Then the next three weeks as long as I burn off anywhere between 1.75 pounds and 2 pounds, I'll be a happy camper.
After that, a pound and a half a week will suffice.

Yay. Results are glorious.

...yoga last night. I went to Borders and bought YogaBurn (DVD). It was awesome, especially as I have never done Yoga before. Some of the positions were hard to do, but that's because my body isn't used to bending and twisting certian ways. With regular practice, I should become more flexible/limber and be able to easily get into those positions.

I am now just waiting for my AM/PM Yoga DVD to arrive. Both workouts are about 20-25 minutes each, which I'm happy about. That's something I can do everyday. My YogaBurn is about 50-55 minutes long, so I'll do that twice a week.

In the next few weeks, after I practice the yoga more at home, I'm going to swing by the Yoga Center in Palo Alto on Wednesday nights and do their Level 1 class. In the mean time, I shall stick to my DVDs and going for walks/jogs (when feasible) and weight training.

I, by no means, have an easting disorder.
I have a disordered self image.

I don't intend on suffering from an eating disorder. And I hope I don't fall back into old ways.

I wish to recover.
