Picturing Success

I didn’t go see my mom. I am going tonight instead. I had a really late lunch and did not want to eat again 2 hours later.  Last night was fairly uneventful as usual. I ended up having a veggie sandwich for dinner because Dave had to attend a function at Round Table for his granddaughter. I did not exercise and I was in bed by 9:00 p.m. I was super tired so I decided to crash early. I am feeling like I am coming down with a cold.

I wanted to share a blog with you that I discovered about a month or two ago. It is called Laura Gets Fit. Laura lives in Northern California like me AND has a boyfriend named Dave. She has lost 125 lbs. and was featured in the November issue of Shape magazine. It is always helpful for me to read success stories and this hit home more because I feel like I know Laura through reading her blog. She is still hoping to lose another 25 lbs or so. Go check out her blog when you have a chance, you won't be sorry!

Reading that article makes ME want to be a success story. Whether it is Shape Magazine or another publication, I really would like to be featured as a success story. I am a long way off for sure but it keeps the inner flame burning to get this weight off once and for all. One of my ultimate goals is to be able to talk to other overweight people and tell them it can be done at ANY time and at ANY age. Sure, I wish I had done this years ago but I can't go back and change the past. All I can do is push forward and make it happen. Until next time...
