Back on track

Okay, after a few weeks of putting Christal and her needs on the back burner, I am back to reminding myself what I really want from this life I have been given.

What is my MOTIVATION for losing weight and moving more? I don't want to be diabetic!!! I don't want to end up in a wheelchair!!!

What do I have do to prevent these 2 things from happening? Keep on going to WW meetings and keep on moving. I have decided to find out why runners, run!

Stay tuned!

A revelation!

I was talking with a friend today and I had an amazing revelation. If I am doing "stuff" and find I don't have the time to exercise, plan and eat proper meals or get enough sleep, then the "stuff" is a problem and I need to reevaluate what is important.

I always have tomorrow to do "stuff" but if I let the "stuff" get in the way of taking care of myself, I won't have any tomorrows to do the other "stuff"!

Set backs happen!

I proved to myself today that if I am not being diligent in taking care of myself and my health, I can easily gain 5 lbs.

Taking care of oneself is very difficult to do when you are not accustomed to doing it. I have to remember my future health requires my diligence today. Getting off track, even for a week or two can cause a very serious backslide for me and I know I am not alone.

Exercising helps in my weightloss journey but it is not the only answer. Eating properly and saying, "no", are also necessary for me.

Thank goodness every morning is a new day with a new beginning and the opportunity to be successful!
