Don't Beat Yourself Up!!

Don't Beat Yourself Up

"Don't beat yourself up" are words that I would like to say to Ruby Gettinger. I belong to a team called 'Rootin' For Ruby' and all of us on that team do indeed 'root' for her as well as for each other.

But now she is feeling that she needs to apologize for gaining a few pounds back. Good grief!! She started out at over 700 pounds and is now down below 400. We are proud of her, inspired by her and truly motivated by her.

So she gained a few pounds! There is not one of us on this journey who has not had that same experience. In fact, many of us have had that experience over and over and over. I have been there/done that.

That is a part of the journey. The learning of a new life style. And it isn't an easy part of the journey. I know that she will get back on track and not let one small detour be a major problem.

She has been on the Style Network during her journey. Which has given us a chance to watch and be totally inspired by her successes, Now the network is thinking of dropping her show. Major mistake, Style Network. With obesity such a major problem in this culture, we need Ruby to show us that it can indeed be done. Not by someone who is perfect and unable to follow but by someone like Ruby who is just like us, struggling, but getting there.

Three cheers for Ruby!! You go, girl!!

Inner Peace:

If you can start the day without caffeine,

If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,

If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,

If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,

If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,

If you can take criticism and blame without resentment ,

If you can conquer tension without medical help,

If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,


.Then You Are Probably .........
