Post stolen from Main Board - Challenge!
I read this and thought it was good so thought I'd share it...
Our challenge today is to "STOP"!! See the red light, the caution light, and the stop signs! Stop what? Doing anything that is destructive to you! What are you doing that could harm you? Are you finding yourself falling back in to your old eating habits? Are you sneaking a bit of something here and a taste of something there? Are you not getting in your water, your vitamins or your calcium? THEN STOP RIGHT NOW! Just make up in your mind that you are going to do what you are suppose to do to make this "TOOL" work. I dare you! NO MORE SUGAR! NO MORE SODAS! NO MORE SNEAKING HERE AND THER! Set your mind and just "STOP"! See the stop signs and the caution lights in front of you. We had this surgery to get "thin". To change from the unhealthy people that we saw. To get to a goal that we, along with our Dr. set. Don't blow this wonderful tool that has been placed in your hands! I CHALLENGE YOU to start doing the things you are suppose to do! You CAN do this! You CAN make it work for you! Get back to the basics and STOP old habits!
Boy I hear ya!! I tell myself that all the time!! I get SO mad at myself. .I start eating something that I shouldn't and I'm talking out loud to myself!! I need to get rid of the pop in my house for one thing! I have cut myself down to one a day..but thats too much I know what I need to do,but doing it is another thing!!! And snacks....I buy them for the kids but should be buying healthy ones instead!!
Then my hubbys not working and cooking supper everynight...not used to that! I think I need to go to after supper,too,the nights are killers!! Makes me !
