New Month, New start.

Hello Everyone!

   I hope everyone enjoyed their Super Bowl weekend, and caught up financially from all the holiday partying, and gifts, and hosting events. As well as caught up on their sleep and beautiful family time. Perhaps some of you even GAINED some weight from all the stress-eating, stress AND eating- or whatever combination of that  ;^)  (I know I did.)
   So now that all that is over with-- wait, Valentine's is around the corner... (and most importantly my b-day!) (^_^) [actually in less than a week.] there's still more partying to do.  I'd LOOOOVE to be unapologetically sexy on my big birf dai... BUT that's not going to happen in less than 5 days.. But I can still wear confidence very well so I'm not buggin'.
    Moving Right Along.....
    Now that its FEBRUARY <3 The shortest month of the whole year--and MY personal new start (i dont do- New Year's Resolutions) I've decided to take a different approach to my fitness journey.. There is ALWAYS A METHOD TO MY MAAAAADNESS... [insert mad scientist voice.] So to me, there's a mental science to it.
    Every time I've ever looked my best, it was always vanity/ego the driving force. Just broke up?-- I'm going to show him all he's missing. Just had a baby?-- I'm going to show how hott after giving birth I am.. It was just always about looks. During my younger years-- ugh! Let's just say learning to love myself and my body is something one can easily forget this THIS society.. and is an ongoing process, I mean especially for women. The body is always changing, and this society favors the young & beautiful. (No complains, I've had my share in the spotlight) ;^)

  So.. right, My Method.
Its a simple one... Work out. And Keep a record of my progress..

Random person (RP): "Hey, that's been around for a while, that's not exclusively YOUR method."
 ME: 'WELL... random person, I know that. Everyone knows that. The shit is, DONT RAIN ON MY PARADE. I told you already, there's a method. If you don't understand it that's fine, just be easy. Come correct and allow me to explain....."

It is a great idea for everyone to have a notebook or word document to track their progress. I know some people who even email themselves, or txt their partners with scores and results.. The thing is-- for me-- that I don't always write in my notebook. It is so easy for me to just say, "well, I'll write in it later." That is part of how I got crowned as Queen Procrastinator back in the day, I'm looking to pass on the crown-- too much responsibility. Anyway..Honestly, it is the best tool to get real with yourself. You can see all the crap that you know you shouldn't eat, but do.
   Since I don't write in my notebook every meal, sometimes I forget to include something.. But the thing is, my body won't forget. My body will say, "Oh, you're not going to use these calories? Ok, I'll just store it for you, maybe you'll want to use it later on."
   Just between You and me, my body is the best assistant to this brain of mine, always doing what needs to be done. Well not always, she comes in late sometimes- I still don't fire her because.. well.. I love her ..
    Ok.. Ok.. so here's where MY method comes in...
 The way I will keep track of my progress is write in it once a week. TA-DA!  :^D
I won't count calories.. I wont eliminate any food groups (except shellfish which i'm allergic too, and GMO's and Dairy because i'm lactose intolerant, like really bad.)
  I can tell you more, but I rather show you..
So stay warm out there. And Keep Pushing forward, upward and onward- <3 PEACE!

 <3 Eli
