Crap there goes my identity

By Michele Malo

If you follow my Facebook posts,, www.facebook.com/wellcomehomellc, you will see that yesterday, I posted that I was officially frustrated. That is no lie, I am not sure if it is because 40 is just two months away or if I am just doing what I always do to myself which is over schedule and complicate things. I am leaving things on the train, forgetting I am boiling water, obviously attempting to burn the house down and then rememebring I am set for another training class on Thursday in which I just realized never received the book or any information. Great! Did I mention the wind took out my Tower Garden so now my patio looks like tomato soup.  Frustrated yes. Frustration doesn't come close to the emotions I was feeling when I had to give up most of my shoes and clothes this week. I know you lost a ton of weight how liberating. Yes, I am truly excited nothing fits and my feet shrank a size and a half. But as the woman at the consignment shop continued to go through my things. I shook. One, thinking about all the money that has been spent on things such as these that now will be sold at a fraction of the cost. But, in those clothes was my identity. Corporate woman extrodinare! Also, in those clothes was unhappiness and someone hiding. No going back, as I would have nothing to wear. As I move forward through frustration and being uncomfortable. I think it is a good thing. I beleive being scared makes you stronger.

What are you scared of?

About Me View Profile

Michele Malo

I am the owner of Wellcome Home, LLC and an Advanced Certified Personal Trainer. I left corporate america and 160 lbs behind to help you live a healthier life. I worked 18 years for foodservice manufacturers such as Kraft, Kellogg and Barilla and with thousands of airline miles to my credit decided to pack it up, and utilize my MBA for my own business. Almost 10 years ago I had gastric bypass surgery only to find my weight creep back up with all the stress and travel associated with my career. I understand what it means to battle your weight and it is my dream to help others take control back of their lives. Making small changes when put together make a big difference.
