Lean Lady

Positive physical and mental health blog.

21 year old girl looking to be happy and healthy through healthy eating, exercise and a positive mentality.

I have decided that enough is enough. I no longer want to punish myself for being me. I know what I need to do, so I'm just going to do it....for myself. I need to focus on being happy with who I am and not beat myself for not being an unattainable idea of 'perfection'

Goals:
1) Learn to deal with stress in a healthy way (walk, talk, breathe, take a break)
2) Learn to be happy with who I am and what I do, I only have one life and I am the only one living it so enjoy it and don't compare to others.
3) Eat mainly paelo but never restrict food, it should be enjoyed but not used as a means of comfort
4) get outside more

I have to leave

For anyone who actually follows me, I wont be on this for a while. As great as tumblr is, right now its actually making me worse. Instead of seeing inspiration I see bodies, lifestyles, diets, workouts that I have to compare myself too and fall short.

I’m getting overwhelmed with everything that is out there, should I run, cus she runs, should I go hike, cus he hikes, should I eat paelo, should I be 100% strict, should I just go with it, do I want muscular toned legs or do I want skinny fashion legs……everywhere I look I just see something that I am not and its pushing me back and back down into a place I don’t want to be.

I need to go away and concentrate on doing what is right for me, I need to focus just on what I do, there are too many opportunities for comparison and negative self talk in my actual life, so tumblr right now is another source of stress that I don’t need.

I will be back, cus Tumblr is great. But for now, see you, and stay healthy and happy.
