This is the year I turn
60! As far back as I can remember, I've struggled with my weight. I dare guess to say I've probably lost thousands of pounds during the last forty years of my life....Lost 40; gained 50 back; lost 30; gained 40 back..and on and on and on. My yo-yo dieting has now taken it's toll on the wonderful body God had originally blessed me with.
Now, I suffer from aches and pains; neuropathy; degenerative disk disease, headaches, insomnia...and the list goes on. It seems like each day I wake up, I have a new pain issue to deal with.
And now...
I'm SICK and TIRED of being SICK and TIRED!!!!!
Today I'm taking back control of my life and with God's help, I'm releasing the power that He so graciously gave me that's been buried for so long.
I'm not saying it's going to be easy. In fact, I know it's going to be painfully hard, but you can't eat an elephant in one day. You have to take it little by little...day by day...and in a year we will all see a major portion of it gone!
As of today, I have 79.5 pounds to lose. To me, that sounds like an incredible amount to lose, but not impossible.
With the help of this website; blogging; keeping a diet journal; and writing down everything I put in my mouth,
I WILL succeed!!
I also plan to bombard myself with positive affirmations, meditation and prayer and maybe even a little hypnotism tapes that I've acquired over the years. Oh yes, I might even try to do a little exercise (the hardest thing for me) especially this time of the year.
So...let the
NEW ME begin! I'm making 2011
my year!
Here's to feeling better about my self and honoring the wonderful body that God blessed me with by not polluting it anymore. By the end of the year I expect to have less aches, pains, headaches and better health! God bless all of us who are on the same journey and the road to success!!!
