Suppressing Fears.............

Monday, January 07, 2008

I have to admit, that lately I think of what happens if I regain my weight. I am not going to do but it was a thought that came through my mind and I have to tell myself that this time will be different, this time is the last time, the time that is going to last forever. I don't want to come back down this road again. I don't know why my mind is trying to worry me on this, but I do know that I want to get to the finish line and I am going to cross it this year, rain or shine, crowd or no crowd. I am going to achieve my goal. I am not giving up!!!!!

Red, I love your honesty and have benefitted from your support so much during my journey. I have to believe that GOD is rewarding your spirit of giving and you too will be victorious. Come on and join my "Baby Sister" Keenieboy and I. No one has been as instrumental among the Queens as you in keeping all of us encouraged. Here's some of what you have given begin returned to you: With GOD all things are possible. Commit to one day at a time, thanking HIM in the morning even before you stand to your feet. Thank HIM for victory in your eating and cardio. Thank HIM for always doing for you what you can't do yourself. Everyday, pray this in addition to your morning devotion. Through out the day, when tempted to eat the wrong thing or tempted to skip cardio, pray again the prayer and thank HIM again as much as it is necessary. We are waiting for you and cannot fully rejoice without you. Report Inappropriate Comment

Planning is a must!!!!

Wednesday, January 02, 2008

If I don't take the time to plan then I am planning for failure! That is not an option. Its Day 2 so I know what I need to do to step up my game and reach my goal.

This month, I will keep a physical journal on me to help me get through the days and moments when I can't get on the computer and check in on sparkpeople site more often. I will do my weigh-in's once a week on friday. I am looking to get out of the 220 club this month. I have been trying to get out of here for awhile so I am just now trying to make this move!!!! I have packed my bags, just waiting on the bus to roll so I can move down south!!!!

Shaking things up

Saturday, December 15, 2007

I had to turn things around some this week. I changed gyms. I think at my old gym I got a little too comfortable.....okay maybe too comfortable. I find myself working harder at this different gym. I am hoping this is what my body needed to help get these pounds on rolling off. I really want to get to the finish line. I am making some changes. I think I was in a rut and although I was making some changes, they weren't the right changes. I am ready to get these pounds back to rolling off. I want 2008 to be the year. I am ready to conquer this task. It will be completed. I will be one day writing my MISSION ACCOMPLISHED STATEMENT!!!! I don't know what it will say but it will be my acceptance speech of losing 100 lbs.............. I get excited just thinking about that day. I look forward to the day that I step out of the 200 club. Wow I wonder what does that feel like???!!!!

All I can say is that stepping into onederland is a new resolution in itself. Keep that vision before you. See yourself stepping on the scale and seeing 199. You can do it. I look forward to your MISSION ACCOMPLISHED statement too. Report Inappropriate Comment

Hi, it's good that you recognized that you needed a change and a new challenge. That is what losing weight is all about. And it inspires you to find out more about yourself. So continue on your way to getting past the 200 mark. You'll learn more when you get there too. Report Inappropriate Comment
