OK. I know these threads come up fairly often. I haven't seen one for a while but I'm looking for inspiration to make some positive changes to my life and wondered if anyone was up for joining me! For motivation and inspiration.
I'm a teacher and we're entering the last 5 weeks of term which is a slog of report writing, assessments, data, parents evening, end of year productions and tired, hot, emotionally disregulated children 😁😵
I need something to plan for and look forward to!
Mentally, my year runs from September to September rather than January to January and I have the 6 weeks holiday to implement real change. I'm using what little headspace I have over the next 5 weeks to think, plan and prepare!
Every year, I promise myself I'm going to do this and every year I don't!
I'm determined this year will be different!
I'm 48. As of this morning's weekly weigh in, I've lost 19lb. My goal is 22lb at which point, I'll review losing another half stone.
For the past few weeks, I've been diligent about my Saturday morning pedicure - Saturday kitchen, a rosemary and rock salt foot spa, nails clipped and painted. My feet are now ready for anything!
I eat well, don't exercise at all 🙈, drink water. Lots of 'self care' stuff i guess, personal grooming ok but could maybe be better. I need to get better organised in the kitchen - batch cooking in half term holidays for the upcoming half term is a goal I never quite meet!
My biggest thing is that I need to improve my self confidence. I just want to feel a bit more in control of myself and my life and not riddled with the self doubt that has held me back for years.
Anyone fancy joining me? Or sharing things they've done that made all the difference tp them. Thanks.
