One week ago, I started this challenge. I didn't think one week would be able to ever make such a difference in me, but it has taken a hold of me in a very crazy way. It's not a difficult decision anymore for me to make better decisions. And though all of it has been beneficial for me, I notice mostly the change in my attitude because of it.
One of the things I never really indicated in my challenge but that has become a big source of pride for me is that I have been telling more people no. I have the tendency to tell everyone "yes" and overextend myself much to the resentment and discontent of my own liking. And while this can be good in the sense of having a helpful spirit, it's not good when it gets to feeling taken advantage of, so I have been able to recognize things about me that need to change that I didn't really see a need for prior to this challenge.
I do feel there needs to be a personal thank-you to Demi Moore and the makers of GI Jane for the inspiration that movie provides me with. I have about a 45 minute to 1-hour time period during that movie when I can watch it and not think about being on the treadmill. It's niiiiiiiice!
