AN AWESOME thing happened to me today... CHECK IT!
I went to do a workout video (I was going through the ones on cable) and I came across, the biggest looser workout, it was with Bob. Anyway, my boyfriend got up and worked out with me! It was so awesome, I nearly cried. It was the first time he has worked out at home with me. He hates videos and aerobic stuff, but he loves the biggest looser show, who doesn't right?
So anyway, this just reminded me that even though I can't FORCE him to take better care of himself---that I am not being selfish here by taking care of myself. I want to make myself better, so that I am stronger, so I can do more for him and his health, (unlike the old way where I was very selfless and spent too much energy trying to take care of him).
I hope that makes sense. It just goes to show that you HAVE to work on yourself first, you have to. This is for all the selfless women out there, that give and give and give! Remember to give to yourself, it will be worth it!
