My Refusal Letter

Dear Kristin:


I REFUSE to delay or postpone my workouts, even if I am tired, aching, or have another offer!  Can't do it, won't do it.  I need it.  I crave it!


I REFUSE to break my minimum 8 glasses of water a day streak.  If  I don't have 8 by 4:30pm, I can feel the difference.  I have been drinking 14-15 a day on average, and pissing like a race horse on a flat rock!  (smiles at least I know I am hydrated).


I REFUSE to let the unhealthy decisions of others tempt me back to my old ways.  I am stronger than that.  I am smarter than that.


I REFUSE to become stagnant.  Personally, professionally, Fitness - ally.  Do you know how many people have told me they want to do Zumba with me?  Of course not, because I have not told you.  But YAY for in person accountability partners.


I REFUSE to settle.  For anything, Be it a job.  A relationship. An unhealthy meal.  A negative person in my life.  People have always told me I deserve better, in so many aspects.  Guess what?  I do, you should shoot for the stars.  Even if you don't make it, you will land among the clouds.  I am worthy, we are worthy.  Don't settle.


I REFUSE anything that will not help me succeed.  Which is why I will never refuse to listen to advice and insights from my BOOBS.  Even if you all say something that I may not want to hear, I know that it comes from a place of understanding.  A place of friendship. A place of love.


I REFUSE to leave you behind.  I will not walk in front of you.


I REFUSE to be left behind.  I will not follow you.


I REFUSE to be anything but right here beside you, as we cheer each other to our goals.  Rah-Rah each other's accomplishments.  I love giving inspiration, and encouragement to others, it is heart felt.


These are my REFUSAL promises to me.  And to YOU!


We are in this together, Let's get it done!~~~~
