I wrote before about setbacks. We all have them. I have thought forever that my brain must be different from everyone else’s because all the psychobabble didn’t work on me. Will power? Um yeah right…never had that before. I still cannot say no to ice cream, or chocolate. But, when I exercise, I am finding that I don’t have to say no all the time. I am still losing weight, and I get to actually eat things I enjoy. No starving, no deprivation, no whining…it’s been great. All except for the very first day; I don’t want to ever have another FIRST day like that ever again. BTW, my brain is the same as everybody else's. Did you know it takes 10 positive thought to undo every single negative thought?
Every day is a new day. As long as I get in some kind of exercise for the same length of time (remember it’s all about going the distance) at least 3 times a week, I’m losing. Everything I do above and beyond that is a bonus!
My husband told me something the other day that gave me a great visual. He said, “another pound today huh? You must have left it on the road somewhere!” I laughed. Then I thought about it some more. I really did leave it out there, it’s gone. I have kicked 20 pounds to the curb, literally. I don’t want to ever pick it up again.
