What a difference between today and yesterday. I was able to turn in some test results that we have waited over two months for. She was glad that I had lost 5.5 pounds too...boy, I feel better now that some of these things that worry me are off my chest.
Today, I wish to convey some positive hope for those trying to lose weight. My nephew has made it look easy for within the last year he has lost over 100 pounds *He will correct me if I am wrong*. Yet, I sit and struggle to lose a pound a week if I am lucky. I guess it's a good thing though. I just want you to know that perseverence and stubborness is on both our sides, be it harder or easier. We are just two examples of how a person can accomplish something. Dave has the persistance to begin and go on with anything he decides to do. He doesn't mess around with should I or should I not? He just goes with the flow and does things his own way. He maintains control of his ideas and continues to complete the things he wants to do. Yet, I tend to be one that can't decide for sure if I want to do something new. Whether it be losing weight or getting my religious motivation going. I guess it is a good thing. I got to say that when I finally do make up my mind, I go for it with everything I have. Though I trip up some, I get back up and go on.
My dietician asked me today if I would share this blog with her group. I gave her the address and told her to share it with everyone she knows. I just want to let you understand that my goals are not just the weight loss, but also my religious, personal, and emotional health as well. I want to be able to show a personal view of how I am able to do the things I do. It won't always be positive, but I will surely try to keep negativity out as much as possible. I am human or I wouldn't be here on earth...so, the progress will continue.
Today, I am grateful for the friends and family that have supported me in my attempt to lose weight and the other goals I have done. I also want to thank Heavenly Father and his son for their support and the support of the Holy Ghost. I also want you to know that I am grateful for what I have in this life and my main goal is to make me a better person so I can help others more and feel worthy and wise enough to do so. When I do things for others, whether it be sharing pictures of interest or just a motivational statement, I feel good. I feel like I can do something. I've had/still have a depressing feeling about myself because of the mix of emotions and actions in my early years, but I have worked most of my adult life to change that and make something more of myself. So, keep reading and doing your best to lose the weight you need to...It may take a lot of time, but it is a worthwhile goal and something you can continue to do for the rest of your life...after all, life is what we make it...I want mine to be lasting and comfortable...Jan
