I recently changed the background on my phone to one that says "Never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about". I cannot get the fact that I need to get back to my weight loss off my mind, back to working out and feeling better. So although all I want to do is give up I won't because I really want this to work, because I've already accomplished so much so far, and because I'd like to think that when it comes to my weight loss it's too late to stop now. Of course it's not but I'd like to think that it is. I have accomplished goals and then lost them. I reached Onederland and then promptly got myself thrown out! So here I am, again beginning something that has not really ended. And, I'm not waiting until Sunday or Monday giving myself the excuse that starting a diet/life change at the beginning of a week seems more even and symmetrical. I am beginning today because I woke up today, because I'm lighter today than I might be on Sunday if I go without my plan, and because once again I want to go back to those feelings of accomplishment, of positive thinking and of possibilities I had before. Why have I gone off track? Why does anyone? Life, stressed, depressed, tired, who knows? What I do know is that I spent the grand part of my life with food being the controlling central factor, and for a year now that all changed. It was still central but not controlling and I'm ready to get back to that point. It has been a few weeks but that is not that long. It's an extended vacation! I can do this, I know I can, I've done it before!
Here's to new beginnings; with purpose and strength in my stride!
