Coaching and Renewed Energy

It’s been a while since I blogged and I plan to keep this one short. These past two weeks writing my blog keeps getting moved to the bottom of my to-do list. It’s still sitting there at the bottom. I have a million things ahead of me to do. This week, I have been literally out of energy. I went home from work and went straight to bed and yesterday stayed home all day. You would figure with all that bed time I could write a decent blog entry. Things just seem to be a blank lately. I thought I would give a little update of some new interests and commitments in my life.

These past few weeks I have been having what I like to call a quarter life crisis. I usually mull over my life and fear for my future. My last quarter life crisis was in August and it felt as if Medifast fell into my lap and opened up a whole new way of living and eating. Recently my fear has mostly been for my career. An opportunity to go back to school, hit me quickly. I started worrying about my lifestyle and although I don’t have the nicest car and live with a roommate I still manage to find myself living pay check to pay check. This is the fear that keeps going back to school seem like a great idea (making more money in the future) and that makes it seem like the worst idea in the world (I already have quite a few student loans I am paying back, this would make keeping a full time job impossible while adding more debt to the pot). I was discussing my woes at a girls night out type of dinner. My health coach was there and a few days later she decided to approach me about being a Medifast health coach. I mulled it over for a few days and then decided to jump in feet first and go for it. I have been coaching for only four days now. I have small insecurities here or there, but it has given me a great refresher and a new drive for kicking my own diet into gear. “Got to walk the walk, if you’re going to talk the talk.” I am officially signing up today, and will add a new little section into my blog about what it’s like to be a coach.

I also have just borrowed a vegan cooking/lifestyle book. It’s not something that I see fully committing to but not something I would be opposed to checking into. I think that a lot of the food looks delicious and might be something I am willing to commit to eat for a couple days out of the week.

A better blog to come next week after I have caught up a little bit. I am thinking of writing out a list for tips of those just starting out and common problems I am finding my clients are running into. Keep up the good work!
