"The most important person to stand up to is yourself"

Sometimes you may feel as if you're having a tug of war between your old self and your new self. It's not easy to make the type of changes in your life that you've decided to make. In your moments of decision, when you feel like eating ice cream at night or lying in bed in the morning instead of getting up to work out, ask yourself. "Who do I want to be today: the old me or the new me?" Your body and life are being shaped by these moment to moment decisions. It's those decisions that brought you to where you were at the beginning of this Program. And if you continue to make decisions the old way, you're going to continue to produce the same results. To create different results, you have to take a different approach. It's not easy to stand up to yourself, but you can do it!

Ain't that the truth!! My old self....eeek!! Scary individual!! Unhappy, unmotivated, dark, depressed and just well witchy with a B! This new lifestyle has opened my eyes to a new person I enjoy being. A person I want to be and remain to be! I don't ever want to go back and I look forward to what I am going to become!

Think about it, why in the world would we want to go back to that. Let's take it to the end! I want to be a success story, how about you?

Have a great Day!!

Thank you for the reminder! Now I choose to get away from the computer and "the new me" will do some exercises I've been putting off all morning. pumpin.gif

Enjoy your day girls...I love your energy CinAz and my dear Swedish freind I look forward to working out WITH you someday! Hugs & love,Laura

good way to start the day

Thanks Carolynn,
There are days I find myself lying in bed in so much pain that I just feel like giving up but then I dig deep down inside and grab a hold of my inner being where my strength lies and ask God to meet me half way and I get up and do what needs to be done for myself. It takes determination and a intense desire to succeed and the faith to see it through.
God speed~

Forget past mistakes. Forget failures. Forget everything except what you're going to do now and do it."

Jerome, my prayers are with you that the pain you experience will be healed and you won't feel that anymore. If you keep at this, hopefully the muscles will become stronger and the pain will diminish. I am so proud of you for what you have done and what you have achieved!! Don't ever give up!! You are an inspiration!!

Good morning to everyone. Hope your day is a phenominal one!
