• I woke up this morning feeling rather determined.
  I wake up motivated most mornings but today
  something different stirred up inside of me. You
  see, Ive been slowing growing (and not because
  Im pregnant ??). Lets be honest, Im growing
  because I cant stop eating.
• Ive blamed
• Covid-19, because, havent we all. I
• mean all that quarantine and spare time on our
  hands, whats a girl left to do but
• cook and eat!

3

• Ive blamedmy husband for bringing home
  chocolate. I mean it is his fault Im eating
  chocolate every night.
• Ive blamedwinter because its simply too cold
  to get up and go walking or go to the gym.
• Ive blamedmy business because my passion is
  food, right? So, Im constantly recipe creating,
  cooking and obviously eating all my creations.

4

• And then Itried to convince myself that the
  scales were wrong, perhaps my clothes hadshrunk.
  I questioned was my size so important after all.
   And then Id tell myself, Well, you are inyour
  mid- 40s, this is a natural progression to middle
  age, right?
• Imlaughing as I type this! 
• Five monthsof this going on in my head and Im
  exhausted.

5

• So today Imade a choice.  Either embrace the
  changingshape and size of Fiona (believe me that
  was definitely an option) or make a changethat
  was important to me. No more noise inside my
  head.  No more questions and negative self talk.
• And this isthe reason that today I woke up
  determined.
• Determinedto do what is right of me.

6

• Determinedto focus on my health and wellness.
• Anddetermined to stop making excuses for what I
  know to be the truth.
• I know Imnot the first one to struggle with
  weight and body image.  Our body is an incredible
  temple and wereally need to be kinder and
  gentler with ourselves. Well, I know I do.

7

• So today, Iam making changes.
• Not becauseI want to see a magic number on the
  scales. 
• Not becauseI worry about what people will think
  about my body and size. 

8

• Today Ichoose to eat less and move more. 
• Today Ichoose to get fit and strong.
• Today Ichoose to feel more confident in my own
  skin.
• Today Ichoose energy over exhaustion.

9

• Today I choose love.
• I know it wont be easy. I know Ill want that
  chocolate at the end of a busy day, and that
  delicious, big bowl of pasta for dinner.
• But I know that if I put me first, Ill always
  choose whats right for me.
