Have you used GPS before? It guides you from point A to point B. The best part is that if you make a wrong turn, it recalculates the directions and gets you going in the right direction again.
I’m sitting here today thinking of all the things I’ve been doing wrong lately. Not working out as much… Not pushing as hard when I do workout… Making some bad choices when deciding what to eat… Eating more than I should… The list keeps on going. I need to correct these things I’m doing wrong before it gets any worse. If I don’t, it will only be harder to correct later.
Sometimes doing this is hard. Thankfully, I’ve got wonderful friends and family helping guide me thru this. When I make a wrong turn, they’re there encouraging me to keep going, helping me make the right decisions. Sometimes it’s just an encouraging word, other times it’s an article or something related to what I’m dealing with. So as I recalculate and fix these problems, remember this – I’m thankful to you for the role you’ve played in supporting me as I do this. After all, it’s just weight…
I will admit I’m not totally sure how I’m going to fix some of these things. But I’ll keep recalculating and trying until I figure something out. I think maybe sheer determination is going to have to do for now while I figure something out. One good thing is this past week I was in the gym twice working out on my own. While it wasn’t technically on my own (I took a class both times), it was better than sitting at home, beating myself up for not doing anything. Combined with my 2 trainings, it’s a start…

recalculating, recalculating! the celebration's over for me too, heath... but it was fun while it lasted, wasn't it?
you inspire me. you move me. you have a true understanding of self-discipline.
don't beat yourself up, remember that goals of high aspirations require patience, too. you're walking on the right path, and you have many supporters cheering you on, friend! can i be captain of your pep squad?
and i will be co-captain!
If sheer determination can work for anyone, it's you! The great thing about life is one day is only 24 hours and tomorrow you can start all over. No guilt my friend, no beating yourself up! Look how far you have come, you are so beautiful! I think working out 4 times a week is one heck of a start! You are amazing and I love you!
