Good Bye to Discouragement and Hello Joy

Hello Everyone,

Well, I've decided to get serious about this journey TODAY! I have been dipping my toe in this water for long enough. Today is the day that I have decided to dive in. Over the past year since the onset of this COVID season, I have allowed myself to get discouraged and checked out. Well no more! I have put on too much weight and my clothes are not fitting and my body looks too big and old for my young mind. I want to live an active lifestyle and slim down to a healthier me. I choose joy in this journey and I refuse to give that up for anything. I will be joyful. I will shake off this heaviness. I will be healthy. Today is the day! Thank you for all the encouragement and help along the way. Be blessed!
