175 Pounds or More to Go is also a new name for the blog. And it is the first blog I am excited to revise the name of. The message is that no matter how many times you have tried to lose weight or how helpless you feel, there is always the opportunity to achieve your goal of being a healthy weight.
Will it be easy? No! Will it magically happen on its own? Not a chance. Can you do it? ABSOLUTELY! I am staking ‘my life’ on it. If I do not reach a healthy weight, the chances for me to drop dead from a heart attack or stroke are great. And I have a lot of life to live, people to meet, and places to go. So 2009 I have declared to be the year of change for me.
My motto for the year is “Looking Fine and Feeling Fine in 2009 – Join Me!” I invite everyone who has battled with weight and has given up or decided it is just not possible for them to come along for the journey. Let’s help support and motivate and encourage each other.
This is Day 2 for me. I had thought about waiting until today. You know, New Year’s Day really is still part of the holiday. Or waiting until Monday, January 5 as everyone knows you can only decide to lose weight on Mondays right? Then I asked myself how committed I was to regaining health and began yesterday.
Was yesterday perfect? No and I am not looking for perfection. I choose healthy foods all day and need to eat more frequently. I need to reduce my portion sizes even though the food is healthy and I need to exercise. I don’t like to exercise and that is okay, I know I have to do it anyway. What is my choice? I choose life!
Join Me….
Are you totally excited about 2009? Do you feel all the possibilities out there waiting for us? Is this your year to reach or refine your health and fitness goals? I am so excited I can hardly stand it and looking forward to success and health for all of us.
