Greetings! I write to you from my amazing vacation up north
in Minnesota. I am enjoying swimming, walking the trails, mini golfing, and
most of all being with my family. My blog is about my journey on the weight
loss journey, but there are so many more parts of this journey that aren’t just
working out or tracking what you eat.
As I am able to sit down and spend all of this time with my
family, I have found realized how lucky I am to have a support system like
them. They support me on this life long journey that I have started, and stick
with by my side no matter what. Without them I would not be able to accomplish
all of the things that I have done so far. I have literally changed my entire world
around, and they have decided to go along on the ride with me. I can’t tell you
how much easier it makes this tough journey.
The second thing that I have realized is how much I have
bettered my life by choosing this path over the other path that I was on. I am
able to walk where ever I want and not get tired. I am able to fit in the go
karts and speed around the track with my little sister. I was able to put on a
swim suit that I never thought I would be able to wear in a million years, and
feel confident enough to be around people. They may not seem like big things,
but they just reconfirm the hard work that I have put in, and the total
lifestyle change that I have made worth it. It makes it worth it to me.
The advice that I can give you about losing weight and creating
a healthy lifestyle would be to find the things that matter most to your in
your life. Take them and let them inspire
you to be better than you are now. Better than you think you can be, and don’t
be afraid to use them to patch the holes
on your journey to a healthier you.
Hope everyone has a good week, as I know I will spending time
with my family. Better get going to the Pool now!!!
Those are big things! ANy accomplishment is extremely note worthy! It sounds like you have an extremely loving family. From the picture I can tell you are enjoying your time with them, who wouldn't in that weather! I am also trying to lose weight to gain more confidence since I am getting married in October. Sounds like your motivation is a lot better than mine! Keep up the great work, having your support system must make all the difference in the world. And great advice at the end!
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice view from your balcony! I think that it is great that you are able to do these things that you may have thought never would have happened, or you only dreamed about. It just goes to show that it may take awhile but progress does happen :)
