It was not until I started working on losing weight that my life felt out of control. I used to believe that anything was possible and that no matter what was going on in our lives, no matter what obstacle we face. it would not exist if we were not meant to learn something from it. That god, the Universe, or flying Fairies, whatever you want to call it would only give us what we can handle, and you know what? I was right.

Weight loss is 20% work and 80% mind. Before you hit the this chick is crazy button, pay attention, or don't it is a choice. You can bust your butt till you bleed but if you do not understand and know that you are going to get to where you want to go then it does not matter. Starve, eat more, work out, work less, it does not mean anything unless you believe you can do it.

Struggle is what we create for ourselves. It is important to arm our brain with knowledge, but not to weigh it down with bull. I lost my way, and from what I see many here have too.

Life is about the sun shining, and being able to have the energy to go for a long walk feeling the sun on your face. It is about smiling, and enjoying a nice ice cream cone, sugar free if needed, while sharing your secrets with your partner. It is about hide and seek with your kids.

Life is feeling in control and not out of it. It is about believing that you know enough to live the life you want to live. Life is about learning and when we choose to ignore things happen like obesity. The truth is the weight loss industry is not helping us get better, it is keeping us struggling.

Use your mind to visualize the person you want to be. Use your intuition to know when you should eat and when not too. Enjoy your dinner and let your brain and body understand it will get more food when it is needed. Be healthy because you want too, not because you have too..

Believe in yourself, remembering that you will only ever face what you can handle. You will only ever accomplish what you believe you can and you will only ever struggle if you allow it.

Love your life, the journey and learning as much as the end result. Love yourself, because if you believe you are worth it, there can be no other way..

Have a great Wednesday and remember YOU CAN DO THIS!
