If you’re walking down a set of stairs and you slip on a stair, you get up and continue your walk down. You would never get up and then throw yourself down the rest of the stairs. If you've "fallen" lately, now's the time to get up, forgive yourself, and move on!!!!


'Procrastination is a type of behavior which is characterized by deferment of actions or tasks to a later time. Psychologists often cite procrastination as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting or completing any task or decision." I am a perfect example of Procrastination. I have read and read and read about with it take to lose weight and get fit. It is NOW time for me to get up and move. Of all the things I have read the one thing I know is you must MOVE and EAT with a purpose.

Ask yourself these 3 questions:
1) Why are you overweight?
2) Why do you want to lose weight?
3) Why have you been unable to maintain weightloss in the past?

DONE BEING THE FAT GIRL!!!! DONE DONE DONE

"Discipline is remembering what you want"

I am worth it. There is only one of me and God will not give me a replacement or a do over. I will lose the weight and keep it off!!!
