Body Image

It depends on what image we are looking at, in a spiritual experience, the devil has a big impact on what we think and what we choose to believe. I think that when someone makes a comment about the way your body looks it has a HUGE effect, even if what they were saying was just a tease. Guilt can also be a factor that brings people to a poor image.

I have a relative that finds comfort in eating. She has since she was young because of her peers, and now she finds comfort in eating. And she has a low image of herself.

What can be done about it?
Start by understanding, and have the mind set that you want to change. Something that really has helped me is a juice fast. 
It is where you go from days between 1 week and 1 month on only liquids. It is the perfect way to start new, and you gain so much from it.

Motivation Discussion Week 1

Each week that I was working on my goals, I would go online and look up some inspirational thoughts, quotes, pictures, ect. So, I thought that it would be right to post them in a discussion.


For this week, these were a few of the things that kept me motivated. Its not about how much you can accomplish, but what we push ourselves to do. We need to just go, forget the excuses and just run with life.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Motivation Discussion Week 2
    Alright, here are the next few pictures that kept me motivated during the week; they were on my phone home screen, my computer, all over the place. 




My favorite was the second one. We all do exist, but are we really happy with our exsitence? We have to learn how to live, and to be ourselves. Staying fit gives us the energy to become what we want to become, and with the right amount we can become anything we want to.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Motivation Discussion Week 3
  Week Three! Here are my pictures

I loved this one because, life is hard, and there are obstacles in life that are going to make us question whether or not we can keep going, but if we make the leap, we can get to the other side and go on.


I love the reality of this quote. Really, there are hard things, everything is hard, we just have to choose what hard we want to over come, obviously there are things we wont be able to overcome, but we can understand how to take the challenge


And this was my favorite. Just read the words on their own. Limitations. ONLY. Exist, IF YOU let. Them.
Only, if we let them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Motivation Discussion Week 4
     Okay, here are more motivational picture quotes!

I could only picture. But then I think, what are your metel detectors? 
You answer that


YES! We all have a power, and by fitness and not giving up, we have the chance to first) find our power and second) to use that power and keep it there in our minds


Im a fan of this one. Im not a girl who overly loves to sweat, even if that shows how much I've worked out, but I find if I change the name then it makes it easier. 
So if the word 'Fitness' or 'Workout' doesnt appeal to you, change it!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Motivation Discussion Week 5
   Its already week five! But whos to say that week five has any significance? Yeah it has been a long time, but its still truely the beginning.

I have understood this. There are things that I wished I didnt give up, especially when I look back and see the things that I did overcome. But, I dont still kick myself for not completing them, I look at it as a new goal, a new thing to work on


No matter what they are, or how big they are, DESTROY them. Take them down, and when you're done, be happy with what you got done.

This is so true! And if the world isnt going to do it? Who is. WE ARE. And we have to know how to do it, and there is no other better place than to start with yourself. 
Like the song Man in the Mirror "Im starting with the man in the mirror, Im asking him to change his ways, and no message could have been any clearer, if you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make the change."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Motivation Discussion Week 6
    Alright!! Week six! There is nothing more satisfying than seeing the work you are accomplishing. As I have before, here are the quotes!


I dont think I need to say anything to this



If you need to look at this closer, do. Because when you want to become better, to help the world become a better place, we have to start with ourselves. And after that, after we have mastered ourselves, we can go on and help others.


YES!! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Motivation Discussion Week 7
   Our final week.
But is it really? No, not for me. This is just the beginning, this is where I make the comittment, but to myself I keep going on. Moving forward.
These are the final pictures I have, and they are some of the best



Everything we want done, we really do have to work for it. And if we REALLY want it, we will give it our absolute best


No matter how big or small, just do it.


And this concludes my posts. I hope that these has been as inspiring as they have been for me.
