My experience....in a nutshell. My weight was never an issue until I was sexually abused at a hospital prior to surgery as a child, later I was molested as a teenager, as an adult I was raped. As a result I have had serious 'Body Issues' when I was thin I was HURT, when I was FAT I was SAFE, it was my protection, my insulation and shield from Pain. Yo Yo dieting has been my life... I want my Life back and I would love for you to come along for the journey...

*Awesome w/out, So sore- love it!! So amazed at the condition of my body in only 4 weeks. *It gets EASIER yet SO MUCH HARDER!!! at the same time - Just 'happy' that I truly LOVE this journey!

DAY 3 - Had to stretch ALL DAY long...sooo sore, so funny, but Great!! :o)
So very xcited to be trying something new, always up for a new challenge and P90X is just that!!! So hard but so worth it!! I swear~ I finish a work-out and I walk taller.....so dog-gone proud that I did it!! Life is Great, "firmly" back on track, this last time I fell hard but have not felt to this focused since moving here!!
Getting up and reviewing goals and doing the same at night really helps me.....feels really good to be back in the game; mentally, physically and emotionally!! Just keep thinking about the END result......
Feel Great, Look Great, Have an abundance of Energy and Mental CLARITY!! a crazy clear focused head!! Most of all I want to find my true authentic self, I am finally beginning to emerge, very slowly but hey, that's okay!!! Better late than never....=)!!

* Mon. at 4:45 am I will begin "Day 1" of PX90 !! I have been doin it on and off, wanted to wait unitl I was ready to fully commit..
......................WELL- I'M READY!!I want to always stack the odds in my corner to be as successful as possible......I am so lucky~ my sister has agreed to give it a try for at least..3 weeks.I know that after 3 weeks the weight will be falling OFF and her energy will be soaring so she will keep at it!!! all the way to day 90!!!! I know my sis and she will not QUIT!!!!! Were Cauley's and were Irish so we DO NOT QUIT!!!! EVER!!!! SO XCITED!!!! This is going to be a great experience with my sister!! :o)))
* "Love thyself" my new mini-mantra, need to shut up and just do it!!......Not feeling well, which tends to proceed feeling overwhelmed and off track...
I have been justifying my "being off" to the stress of my quick move. With that being said I am also making a 'Huge' effort to not beat myself up for every little setback that I have, because in reality that's all it is really - a setback. Instead I am choosing to use this time as an opportunity to reassess my goals and make any changes necessary to get back on track. I have not been reviewing my goals daily as I did in MI, which is crucial for my success as well as visualisation, always has been always will. Need to stick with what works...duh! :o)
*"Love thyself" - need to shut up and just do it!!

I was Anorexic ~ just under 5"8 and 107 lbs. PURE HELL......
I have been watching the advertisements for Oprah's upcoming show with Portia D'Rossi and her struggle with Anorexia that aired today. I have gotten physically sick every time I watched the previews because I have unfortunately walked that path as well! It was a VERY DARK TIME!! I don't know how else to explain it! I would NEVER wish that on anyone, not even my worst enemy ( sure hope I don't actually have an enemy:)) It was as if someone else had taken over my body........seeing Oprah was cathartic because it's incredibly hard to explain to someone who has not been there, they all think you nuts!! As my family did as well. I burned all my pictures a few years ago, a way to "release" my past, though sometimes things like that show just bring me right back to those days of incredible pain and sickness. It was literally Hell on Earth!!! I cried almost the entire show and had the chills the rest of the time. I am so thankful that people have begun at least talking about it more....So needed to just put that out there....as I have gotten SO MANY responses by people having themselves or have known of someone with Anorexia or Bulimia. I just wanted to address it in some way.....but that's all I can say right now......it's very hard to even think about and not feel the weight of the experience pull me down..
