If Not Now, When?

There is a famous Jewish saying that teaches us to take opportunities as they present themselves because if you do push them off, chances are they won't be there again. This is something I try to live by in all areas of my life and what better time than now than to apply that principle to my new personal goal of being healthier. So, after writing my initial post, I looked online to see where my BMI level was at. Suffice it to say that we are in a VERY NOT healthy category but nonetheless, instead of looking at my lot and feeling despair, I decided to take actual steps toward a healthier me...I cleaned out my fridge - which wasn't such a big deal but required some effort. I threw out things that I know are not allowed on my plan. It felt good; productive. I will make this goal achievable. I WILL NOT FAIL!! I KNOW I can do this!! In fact as I was cleaning the fridge and putting away some other items, I recalled the time when I was on my way to being healthy and how I loved the way I felt. Unlike the weighed down feeling I feel now. I am determined to do this and if I have to blog about every little thing just to give me the strength to get there, well then so be it! Tomorrow will be my official day one. I look at today as my mental preparation day, so that when I wake up tomorrow I feel strong and confident that this is achievable!! Nothing tastes as good as healthy feels!
