I Can Do This!

Life always presents us with an inordinate amount of things that need to get done on any given day. It is our duty to then take those things and prioritize them and decide what gets done and what simply won't. I work a busy job that often leaves me up at all hours of the night, trying to balance a social life, working towards a doctorate and of course the every day things like grocery shopping, paying bills, staying in touch with family and and....the list goes on... and, oh, I almost forgot, looking for a potential spouse - the ever exciting dating scene - which not only eats up time but emotions as well. So, if you noticed on that list, no where did I say I spend time every day becoming healthy. Well, the time has come. I've pushed this off for 20 years of my life and I will push it off no longer. I spent the weekend with a friend who lost almost 90 pounds and she did it with simple determination and love and support from her family. I looked at her and was amazed at her resolve and I decided right then and there that if she could do this, there was no reason why I couldn't. So, this is where I begin. I have a plan all worked out and a health coach to help me on my journey. This time I will not fail. I kind of just got the chills when I wrote that line but I think the more times I say it, I will believe it. I will not fail...I will not fail...I will not fail..... So, here's hoping! Nothing tastes as good as healthy feels! I CAN DO THIS!
