Day 33 - Don't forget to Smile

Since the begining of my Transformation some 33 days ago, I've been very focused on my goals.  I'm very serious about making permanent changes in my life.

The thing is, it's like I have 2 personalities.  One the one hand, there is this part of me that wants to shove a cheeseburger and fries down my throat and then sit around on the couch and watch TV.  On the other hand, there is another part of myself that wants to rise above my base urge to eat crap and be a couch potato.  The point of this is there is an internal struggle going on inside me:  betwen the Healthy Me and the Slob Me.

At times, I make this into a very difficult struggle between my two sides.  I have to get very focused and disciplined to keep the healthy part of myself in charge.  When I'm in this struggle, I am a very grumpy fellow.

Today I started having this internal battle with myself and I just stopped and said: "You know what, I DON'T WANT TO BE A FAT, UNHEALTHY, SLOB.  PERIOD.  I want to change and I'm doing everything I can to change...so why be mad.  I need to lighten up and be happy...SMILE MORE! 

I'm making postive changes in my life and that is a reason to be very happy.

I hope you're having a great day!

God Bless!

How many times has the "slob you" gone on to win without even a struggle? At least the healthy you is speaking up and giving him some lip service (in a way that's different then eating :) Transformation doesn't happen overnight. To much of the learning process would be left unlearned. Stay strong, keep fighting and eventually the perseverance will bless you with activity and healthy eating as second nature. Make it a GREAT weekend, Denise
