Day 4, Week 1 -- Perfect

Ok, so I had a minor slip and had some Coke today (I've been trying to give up carbonated drinks).  So maybe it wasn't a "perfect" day.  But I had a GREAT cardio exercise.  I skated from Washington all the way to end of Santa Monica, and kept up enough of a pace that I was sweating bullets throughout.  I think I need to drink more water though -- it seems like I'm sweating pure salt.  Weird.

I'm almost done with my first week, and I feel great.  Not just physically, but emotionally too.  I'm doing this for myself, but I'm mindful of the secondary reasons as well.  There is someone out there who I owe this to, almost like an apology.  To humble myself and allow her to serve as my inspiration, when previously I had thought that I was the cat's cradle -- it's my way of saying sorry.

She may never see it, but I'm making peace with myself this way.  I will be strong throughout these 18 weeks, and I will shed the fears that kept me from appreciating what I had.  

Next time opportunity knocks, I will not miss it.
