We are on this journey because WE CHOSE to leave an unhealthy lifestyle behind. Think about this whenever you are struggling. Think about why YOU CHOSE to leave your unhealthy lifestyle behind. Remember that this was a CHOICE YOU made. The journey isn't always easy, but it sure is worth it. Think about all of those reasons YOU CHOSE to leave your unhealthy lifestyle behind as a means to re-energize you for the journey ahead. It is okay to stumble and struggle. But do something to get back on track because getting healthy is something YOU ONCE CHOSE was important to you. What I suggest doing is thinking about all of those reasons you made the choice to begin your journey. Are those reasons still important enough TO YOU to continue the journey towards better health. For some folks, maybe those reasons aren't more important than being able to stuff Cheeto's and Cheesecake into your body whenever you want....and that's fine so long as you accept its a choice only you can make.

What choice will you make today?

Be Fierce My Friends!

    So true! I am going to copy and paste this. And then underneath it I am going to list why I am choosing to leave my unhealthy lifestyle behind. I will then put it somewhere for easy reference. Thanks!

    Thanks for posting this. It reminds me of that popular saying: "Suffer the pain of discipline, or suffer the pain of regret." I think we all know what it is (or was) that we chose to leave behind, and I sure don't want to go back there.

    Stay the course. We'll be happier for it. :happy:
