I workout a lot. I am always dieting. My studies in school pertain with Physical Fitness and yet I am not ideally where I would like to be weight wise.
On another note, I keep getting men on dating sites approaching me that are obese and are couch potatoes and I remember telling my single friends and myself "I always attract overweight, old guys or only young men that want me sexually but don't want a relationship with me." (Ya, I know horrible thinking and I have totally put an end to that thinking because I was in fact attracting overweight men that looked old or young men that just had sexual interest in me. You get what you think!!)
I started reading some good posts on the forum about weight loss and last night I was reading in Rhonda's "The Power" and the chapter where she talks about health had something that stood out to me:
Whatever you believe about your body, your cells believe too. They do not question anything you think, feel, or believe. In fact, they hear every thought, feeling and belief you have.
Think and feel you have a weight problem, and your cells receive the order of a weight problem. They must follow your instructions and keep your body in an overweight condition.
What do you want? What would you love? Because that is what you must give to your body. Your cells are your most loyal subjects who serve you without question, and so whatever you think, whatever you feel, becomes the law of your body.
"I can eat whatever I want and maintain my ideal weight." You are the ruler of a kingdom, and whatever you think and feel becomes the law of your kingdom - the law within your body.
"For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he" - King Solomon Proverbs 23:7
I have also been reading Neville's book "Power of Awareness" which emphasizes imagining that you already have what it is you are asking for. Dream it, speak it, smell it, touch it!
So last night as I laid in bed getting ready to drift off to sleep, I told myself "You are beautiful. Fit, attractive men find me very attractive physically. They love my body and think it is beautiful. My body is burning fat even while I sleep. I can eat without worry of weight gain. My arms are shrinking and the skin on my stomach is flattening. I love my body. It is so beautiful. I am beautiful. thank you God for making me beautiful."
I also started imaging the engagement ring that I want on my finger. I can see it so vividly. I can feel the presence of my fiance next to me. I can feel his muscular physique. he whispers in my ear how beautiful I am and how sexy my body is.
So here's where it gets good!!
I went to school this morning and as I drove, I thanked God for my handsome fiance. I imagined him meeting me after class and coming up to kiss me good morning and telling me he was on his way to work but wanted a kiss first. I looked down at my hand and can see that beautiful ring sparkle in the sunlight.
When I got home I checked my messages on the dating site and saw that a man had messaged me. We had been corresponding for a few days and he gave me his # and asked of we could text instead of use the website. So we exchanged texts for a bit.
I went to the gym feeling as though I already have this handsome man in my life. I started my workout and noticed out of the corner of my eye a physique and face that looked familiar. I kid you not, this man could have been the twin of my recent ex boyfriend only he was maybe an inch shorter and he was more handsome in the face than my ex. But still, they could have been related. I caught this man staring at me my entire workout. He would move to another piece of equipment but when it was time for free weights, he was right back next to me. We made eye contact several times and one time it lingered as though he wanted to say something.
About 45 minutes later I had looked up and noticed another really handsome man staring at me. I went back to my workout and about 5 minutes later looked up and caught him looking at me again. I then went to the cardio machine area and about 15 minutes later I glanced over to where the 2nd guy was lifting weights and saw through the reflection of the mirror that he was again staring at me.
As I left the gym I got a message on my phone from a man on another dating site. I had messaged him yesterday and he had viewed my profile but didn't respond so I assumed lack of interest. Also, last night another man I made a first contact with on the dating site messaged me back right away. I haven't received one rejection of men I have messaged first on the dating sites the past few days!
Ok next best part! I weighed myself today and I am -3 lbs from what I was yesterday. I dropped -3 lbs overnight!

I truly am feeling on cloud 9 right now. For the first time in my life,
I am sexy and I know it!!
