Newness

Have you ever hit that point in your life where you felt like you've sat still for too long? That you've done the same thing over and over and it's just not working anymore? That's kind of how I've been feeling. Highly desiring something new and fresh. Just certain things. Not my whole life. I've started making small changes in my life, little things that I actually have control over. That's basically decided what my problem has been. Control. Or lack there of I should say. I have always been a control freak. When I don't get my way I tend to get over emotional. I take things personally, freak out, get pisses etc. And lately I've been trying very hard to remedy this. I've had to start changing little things. Like really considering things I say before I say them. Like it or not, once you say something you can't take it back. It's out there. Especially if you're writing it, like on here, facebook, email etc. So I've not been posting that much online. Just some pictures, the occasional Liam story, whatever. I try to only check facebook once or twice a day instead of every half hour like I use to. Basically I'm trying to limit my social media a little bit so I don't read into things wrong and let it rule my mood.

In other attempts to overcome my control issues, I've been trying new things. New foods, new workouts, reading new websites, stuff like that. Just trying to expose myself to fresh new things hoping it will spark some new interests. My trainer has been switching up my workouts which has really helped. I've been getting to the gym more often so I can really push myself on the elliptical. The harder I push myself the better I feel. I'm starting to feel the changes in my body, stamina, energy. It's wonderful. Feeling this I'm starting to become more health conscious about other things. Portion control is my big one. Don't put so much on your plate, then you won't feel like you have to eat it.

I'm starting to feel a change in myself, starting to feel better, more like myself again. I'm feeling that happy positive me again and it makes me crave for more. I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing and see where it takes me. All I know is I feel better than I have in a long time.
