    I find it's easier to just start making healthier choices slowly over time until it becomes the norm and the junk food and other stuff becomes rare. Instead of a Wendy's combo, get a burger with no cheese and no mayo and a side salad and water. Instead of going out to lunch all the time at work, bring your lunch 2-3 times a week and pack mostly healthy stuff. Instead of going on facebook for an hour at night, go out for a nice 1-2 mile walk or jog. Eventually these healthier choices will compound and start to make a difference without you feeling as though you're making any drastic changes all of the sudden.

    I got to the same point of being tired of excuses. It all started after I went to the gym and got my sweat on. I went home, started cooking some chicken and at that moment while I was cooking, I decided I needed to embrace a new lifestyle. The rest is history.


    Good luck gurrrrrrfran

    I don't know if anyone is even going to read this and I don't really mind if you don't, this is more for me. I am tired of my own excuses that I make for myself. Why am I gaining weight so rapidly? It's because I eat complete crap and I do nothing about it. I only have myself to blame. I always use the excuse 'I'll start my diet tomorrow' so that means I pig out on everything I can get my hands on with the promise in mind that I'll do better tomorrow, but tomorrow never comes. So instead of vowing to start a diet TODAY, I am vowing to change my lifestyle TODAY, making better choices and get in some form of exercise everyday, even if it's walking for 30 min a day. Something is better than nothing. I will limit my calorie intake. I will drink more water and I will cut down on the amout of soda I drink! So here's to a new me and no more excuses!

    Ayy! That's the right attitude. Crush your goals with absolute determination!
