I got fat one meal at a time, and I'll get thin the same way.

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense."

-- Ralph Waldo Emerson

“It is clear that we must embrace struggle. Every living thing conforms to it. Everything in nature grows and struggles in its own way, establishing its own identity, insisting on it at all cost, against all resistance.”

Instead of focusing on my disability.....I try to focus on the things I'm still able to do. Some days are easier.....other days I just want to give up. But I try to keep plodding along and always can find something humorous in my day.......

“Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.”
- Mahatma Gandhi

A New Day
Anonymous

If life seems at its lowest ebb,
Because a day's gone wrong.
Let not your heart be troubled,
For a new day soon will dawn

And we can never be quite sure,
Just what it has in store.
Since each one is so different,
Than the one just gone before

As it penetrates the darkness,
With its soft and tranquil beams.
It calms even the most restless soul,
And brings new hopes and dreams

So when a days been troubled,
And the night is dark and long.
Lift up your fallen spirits,
For a new day soon will dawn

The only thing standing in the way of ur success is U!!

Part of getting back into exercising (for me) is all about adapting exercises to fit into the current health problems and challenges in my life.

This is one of my favorite articles:

Motivating ourselves to start, journey, and continue making lifestyle changes is not always easy.If you have found some way, or quote, a story, or experience that has helped you to remain positive, please share it if you can. Thanks!
