Change and Commitment

 

Got this poster from Dave Ramsey's facebook page. LOVE Dave Ramsey!

 

 

 

Change has to happen for me because I don't want what I have been getting, which is fatter. Change is hard for everyone but anything worth having is hard. Dave Ramsey was referring to your finances in the above statement but it can apply to every area of our lives. Why do we fight change so much, probably the fear of the unknown even though what we do know isn't that great. While I might think eating whatever I want whenever I want is pretty great the consequences aren't so great, change can solve that. I won't like the work I have to put into it but I will like the consequences of that work. And eventually the change will become habit and I will be living a better, healthier, and happier life.

 

As I have already mentioned in a pervious post I am hoping that this blog will help hold me accountable to my goals, so therefore let me express my commitment to everyone reading this and to myself.

1. I will weigh in every Friday and post my current weight.
2. I will eat healthier food and eat smaller amounts of it.
3. I will exercise at least 3 times a week (hopefully more) and I will blog about it.
4. I will run a 5K this year.

I think that is enough for now, maybe after I get these under my belt (a smaller one preferably) I will add more. If at anytime I don't do one of these 4 things please hold me accountable for them. I need everyone's help to stay focused and on track. Again say a prayer for me that I will win this battle!

 

P.S. I completed week 1 day 1 of C25K today. YAY!
