So my quest to a healthier life started last week, and the week before that, and then a couple months ago, oh and last year's start was really awesome, and when I got married, and before that trip to NYC, and, and, and, and....
I'm really good at starts. It's the maintaining part that's a bitch.
I've been walking two miles every day, drinking more water, and keeping track of what I put in my mouth. I'm doing pretty good so far- but that's not the problem, it's when I don't do so good that I'm worried about.
So my goal this month (and this blog better well last more than 30 days) is to stick with it regardless if I have a binge of Cocoa Puffs one night or not. Previously, one binge would lead to another, and then I'd say "oh why even bother? I'm doomed! Where's the chocolate?"

science and psychology both agree that the more often something starts, the more likely it is to eventually keep going. That wasn't as "poetic" as i would've liked for it to be...but the point is persistence eventually pays off...even in multiple re-starts
ReplyDeleteBesides...the beauty in your post is that you keep REstarting...even when you say "oh why even bother? I'm doomed! Where's the chocolate?" because you're here, now
aren't you :)
I totally know what you mean! And now that you have spoke it, I am going to be on your ass if you find yourself in doomed mindthink ;o)
