Tipping point

I have been struggling lately with where a line should be drawn. I feel like society puts too much emphasis on what a "normal" woman should look like but at the same time I am trying to be healthy. On Monday I went for my health assessment to set up gym reimbursement. My BP, cholesterol, HR, blood sugar and triglycerides are all within a healthy range but I'm still considered an overweight, obese woman. The only numbers that were out of range were my weight and BMI. Regardless of the numbers, I like running. The gym membership gives me a climate controlled environment almost around the clock, now that I don't have a treadmill at home. The weights and classes are nice too. This week I am making a commitment to myself to recommit. This isn't really a victory yet but it's setting myself up for victory, which is a win. I'm making a meal plan and scheduling my gym time.

What is your little victory today?
