Couch POTATO to "MARATHON" HONEY! :)

Laura, wow....thank you for your response. I sometimes feel so alone and like you said people think the hard part is over because I'm happy most times, but those spirals are crazy!

I'm so happy to hear you two are still together! I can definitely see myself staying with this new person forever when all these feelings pass!

How long did it truly take you to be able to really move on? Do you still think about him?
 
Hi sweets, I'm sorry that you are going through what must be a sort of grieving. I know you have left before, and things were far from perfect. If you are sure this is right for you, then this is right for you. I hope your family understand as I know how important they are to you. My husband keeps talking to me about this & that (thinking out loud?) & I am having so much trouble saying what I want to say. I just want you to know that I am sending you lots of love & hugs my lovely friend xoxo Cate
 
Aww thank You Cate! Daily I'm figuring out what is right and what isn't but for now, this is the space that is good. I'm really in a great place now! Funny what a couple hours can do to a person.

Not to mention a GREAT workout! I'm going in for workout #2. Today during my workout, I realized "I want to be the BEST me ever". Even if I cry through it like I did last night. Today I felt spurts of tears wanting to come out, but didn't and now I'm off to do number two. I realize that at the end of story no matter who I'm with. I'm with ME.

That counts. I must fight for me!

Gonna go to the market and pick up food for clean eating and veggies for juicing! <3
 
I tried hard to pinpoint a timeframe but I really can't recall. Little by little I'm able to forget the sad times, so by now I really only remember the very worst moments. And those were all in the first three or four months. My thoughts of him now are quick happy ones that usually involve his family or his cat - I figure it's the same way you'd remember an old friend you've lost touch with. Starting the new relationship so quickly was beyond hard... I treated the new guy as if we'd been together forever, which was not always a good thing. I had sad moments I couldn't explain to him, and I struggled hard with living alone for a while. Honestly, it took a very long time to stop comparing the two in my head. But it was worth the struggle. I didn't want to risk losing someone so great just because everyone says you should avoid "jumping" into a new relationship.
 
Yes Laura! I completely understand every little thing you are saying! I do all of the above but in the long run I know you are right. It's all for the best!

It gives me great comfort to know that it gets to a point where you just remember the good times as an old friend. I'm grateful
That I'm shutting the people out of my mind that try and feed me negativity including my mom. But....what are we gonna do right?

My new boyfriend is very uplifting and I'm glad to think forward at times where the bond is much stronger. I can relate with every little thing you said about even treating the new one like you've been together forever. Most times it's great, but at times I fight myself to not be complacent because though I've been in a relationship for long to him it's all new and I better stay on my toes.

That being said...I booked a room to Vegas for us for his bday in 25 days with jacuzzi at the Monte Carlo and I'm SUPER motivated now! He had a crazy fitness transformation too and I'm set on losing these pounds and mainly stopping the sabotage that was before I did this trip!

Today I did double workouts and motivation is back!!
 
Thanks my Cate bear!! <3 That's right!

My mindset the past two days has been ON POINT! Super focused and present and not battling with me! I LOVE IT when I'm in tune with God and his mission! It's the only way to live!
