Getting Better with Age

I have long term and short term goals. Short is to lose around 6-8 lbs a month. Long is to get below 200 lbs. I'm 49 and I want to get healthier so I can enjoy the later years of my life. I have been over weight all my life. I have a new look on life. I'm not as good as I want to be, but I'm better than I use to be.

A Spark Friend suggested I read this daily. So until I get my workout room finished and get on the wall, I felt inclined to include it here.

I see myself as a better person and I EXPECT others to see me this way, because I know I DESERVE it. I won't accept any less, especially from myself.
I may fall, but I will not fail. I will see my mistakes as what they are,"Oops Days", and I will continue on my journey of being a more healthy person.

Just because you made bad choices yesterday doesn't mean you can't start over today

There are only 2 choices; make progress or make excuses.

It's never too late -
never too late to start over,
never too late to be happy.

Just dropping by to say hello!
Time seems to fly by. A new month and a new season are here once again. Offering new challenges and opportunities. It is always exciting to see how and what we make of them.

I found something I would like to share: emoticon


"Just before the death of flowers,
And before they are buried in snow,
There comes a festival season
When nature is all aglow."
