Healthy Lifestyle Transition Woes...

I almost had a relapse this morning. I woke up feeling blue. I was overwhelmed by my emotions, what I have to do, What I need to do, and what I am not doing plus everything in between. I woke up embittered by the last 25 pounds that I want to lose.  It was one of those mornings where I was constantly berating myself for my recent lack of exercise and poor food choices. Ironically, the more I beat myself up, the more I started eating. Counter-productive, right? Yeah, I know! So, it is time to put my big girl panties on, stop complaining, and do something!

After a few hours of self-loathing, I decided to embrace the knowledge that I am strong, capable, and living a healthy life is not just achievable for everyone else, but it is very possible for me too. I must move past my feelings, because they have never helped the numbers on the scale go down, nor does it produce a healthier lifestyle for me, per se. However, my belief in God, courage, and determination will afford me a healthier way of living :-)
