We Are Better Together



"We are better together."
I hear those words, and I see these words very often.  How true it is! 
Many of us probably felt alone when starting this journey.  That feeling can be devastating.  How quickly we learn, that by using the tools given to us, Connect and our group Facebook pages, and the Whys Wingmen Facebook page, that this is not a solo journey.  No one is alone.
People share their stories, and although they are different, most people can relate to some part of the story.  When we share our stories, or thoughts, we find out that others have felt the same way, or have gone through the same things.  We celebrate each others' successes.  We comfort those in need!  Someone is always there, ready to give words of encouragement.  We make sure that no one feels alone.
For a group of people, from all over, we become friends.  There is strength in numbers.  We are a community.    Everyone wants success on this journey, and with each other, we can all have the success that we are looking for. 

This journey would be so difficult if we all had to go through it alone.  Think about how difficult it would be without support from our family and friends, and without each other!  I, for one, am thankful that we don't have to do it alone!
We are better together!

Always remember – YOU ARE AWESOME!  Go out and make it a great day!

Doubt Can Kill Your Dreams

Doubt kills more dreams that failure ever will.  All of us have dreams (or goals, if you want to look at them that way.)  As an example, we want to lose weight.  When you decided that you wanted to do this, did you doubt that you could do it?  Did you think that you could do it, and then have someone else tell you that you wouldn't be able to do it, therefore, making you doubt yourself?  How do you think that this will affect your attempt?  If you have a bad day, do you just throw in the towel, and tell yourself that you knew you couldn't do it? I fall into this category.  I want to run a mile, but I have caught myself doubting that I will ever be able to do it.  I have doubted my ability to do this for many years. I justify the doubt by telling myself that I'm just not a runner.  Well, I want to get past that.  I really want to be able to run a mile.  I know that to accomplish this, I will have to constantly tel...

Decisions! Decisions!

 Every day, all of us have to make decisions - what to wear, where to go, what to do, what to eat, and probably many more decisions.  More often than not, I struggle with decisions.  Some days I go through 2-3 outfits before I make a decision.  I'm often involved in the conversation of "Where do you want to go?" "I don't know, where do you want to go?" I am an "over-thinker," and sometimes, I think that makes it even more difficult to make the decision.  There are times that I wish someone else would just make decisions for me! I just got back from vacation, and I had a very difficult time making decisions - food decisions.  A few years ago, my boyfriend and I went on vacation, and we were both on diets.  We went to this famous restaurant, and didn't want to cheat, so we didn't eat anything that we "shouldn't" eat.  That was over four years ago, and we still talk about how we will never do that again.  It bothere...

Negative v. Postive Self-Talk and Self-Esteem

Before I get into stories, and my point of view on this topic, I have a confession.  I am a work-in-progress when it comes to this.  Knowing, and practicing, are two very different things.  It takes personal growth, and I believe that I am slowly, but surely getting there. I believe that the majority of people are unhappy with themselves, for one reason for another.  We may feel fat, ugly, incompetent, lazy, or have any other of a million different ways.  I believe that we all can relate to some, or many of these feelings. My story is that I did look at myself in the mirror, and I saw myself as fat, ugly, and sometimes, pretty much worthless.  Sometimes I saw a total failure in that mirror.  When I would talk to myself, and to others, I would call myself those things, but also referred to myself as a fat cow, a hippo, a moose, or a manatee (a sea cow).  How's that for hating yourself and being negative?  How this affected my self-est...
