Thread: I know it's a women's prerogative to change her mind, but this is ridiculous!

Appreciated the "Food Dump" thread greatly: dealing with temptations relating to eating foods that are not good for us emotionally and physically!

Thought I would start a thread that deals with an issue I have had problems with in the past - this will keep me accountable to everyone...woo hoo!!!!

Please, feel free to join in!

This thread is for people who have a problem with constantly changing their minds about a course of action they have committed to! Hence, the title: "I know it's a women's prerogative to change her mind, but this is ridiculous!"

The root meaning of the word, "decide" - means TO CUT OFF FROM - in other words, no going back!

If you're in the middle of a horse race, you don't change horses in the middle of the race.....end up getting badly injured!

Previously, when I have had unresolved fears and internal issues, I would change what I committed myself to...largely due to impatience, doubts etc....

This is a forum to "BLURT" your fears, temptations to change course....a safe place to acknowledge the feelings by writing it down and FE-AFFIRMING YOUR CHOICE TO STAY COMMITTED TO YOUR COURSE OF ACTION!

That could be: i.e; going back to old eating habits, or not following through with a healthy action!

So, let's "BLURT"

* Negative thought pattern to change:

I felt fearful of doing weights in case bulked up - wanted to change and not to weights anymore!

* Positive pattern:

The right type of training - weights and cardio combined will enable me to be lean, have a higher metabolic rate and burn more calories at rest
- I choose to stick to my course of action of doing weights for health and wellness!

Have a go, it works!

Tap my heels and say: "there is no place like home"

I don't change my place of resident every time I have a negative thought, so darn it, I AM NOT CHANGING OR GOING BACK ON MY DECISIONS - I CHOOSE TO KEEP WHAT I AGREED TO!

I'm just ranting to myself...lol

xoox

I shall be back to this thread - I just need to list them all!!

thanks for the new thread idea!

I'll come back and post once I've decided what to decide lol

I'm not sure if this is quite what you are looking for, but even if I take 2 steps forward and 1 step back , all th etime, I will still get to the finishing line. It's okay to have set backs as long as they don't over take the successes in number.

A line from a song I love
Cause I don't understand these people
Who say the hill's to steep
Well they talk and talk forever
But they just never climb !!!

And climb you must !
