The majority of my life I have battled with my brain to becoming skinnier, until the last few years I had never pushed to become stronger. The number on the scale was still seen as the ultimate goal.
Lifting has taught me a number of things and now I have more NSG (non scale goals) than scale goals
* It’s taught me to not be so hard on myself
* I’ve developed a deeper respect for how powerful, awe-inspiring, and enduring my female body truly is
* On days when I’m unsure of myself, I remember how much stronger I am than my emotions
* Lifting taught me how to focus on my goals, visualize them, and then absolutely crush them
* It’s taught me that I am a smart woman. I am a strong woman. I am a beautiful woman
Last week I finally reached a goal of dead lifting my body weight - I had been joking with my trainer if only I weighed less I would've achieved this goal a heck of a lot sooner ...

Good for you! My weight lifting is a pack for tramping, tent, sleeping gear, food etc etc.............
Jolly amazing Cat. I am like Leanne, my goal is to be able to tramp longer and have stamina.
Hey, Cat. You haven't posted in such a long time and I just was thinking about you. Hope you are well.
