Our parents were right (as they always are) + PROGRESS PICS.

205. 200. 196. 194. 190. 188. 185. 183. 180. 178. 176.5. 175. and here I stand 173.4. How in the world did I do the thing that many people fail at? Also, I have failed at it too, why is it so different this time? Why is it working? Never give up. That is something I was told numerous times as a child. Sadly, this phrase had lost its magic for a long time.

I’ve tried pills, diet fads, as a teen I even jumped on the bandwagon of girls with unhealthy eating habits. Not cool at all, and might I mention that all was a horrible, big fat F-A-I-L.

The difference, this time, was as simple as flushing out everything bad & making everything good.

GOOD ATTITUDE, GOOD EATING HABITS, GOOD EXERCISE, & GREAT FRIENDS.

I know I haven’t met my main goal yet, but I feel so proud to say that I am kicking my fat in the ass! Ladies, let’s get this done! 

DAILY MOTIVATION:

Don’t Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up, though the pace seems slow -
You might succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out -
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt -
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit -
It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit.
