Who IS perfect?
The holidays are coming to an end, and I'd love to stay I stuck with my fitness program without missing a beat...but I didn't. I ate way too much on Christmas day and I indulged in one too many sweets. I tested a home made egg nog recipe and tried a vodka and tonic made with my husband's new carbonation device that he got for Christmas. I stayed up late eating cashew's and indulged in yet another cocktail. But knowing what I did, I awoke the following morning and hit that treadmill. I started the day with my Shakeology and ate like a pro. Sunday, I did more of the same.
There is no reason to beat yourself up after a bad day. We all have them. After all, none of us are perfect. But the reason why overweight people remain overweight is because they wallow in their condition. They figure, heck, I had a bad day yesterday, may as well have another today. This is why diets don't succeed as much as a lifestyle change does. Your body now knows, after you have been doing it right for month after month, that a bad day is just that...a bad DAY. Not a bad week, not a bad month, not a bad year. It is important that you see...that you REALIZE that it was a bad day and that the day will end...and in the morning, the sun will shine just a little differently. That is your clue to treat it differently. It is your clue that the bad day is over and now is the time to turn it around. Because the later you wait, the harder it is. It is this way for many obstacles that you face in your lifetime. It is better to start NOW to fix it than it is to wait. Waiting means you are weak. Waiting means that you are a procrastinator. Waiting means that in your own eyes, you are not worth the effort.
It is a new day. It is time to turn your life around. It is time to be the person you want to be. Because you, more than any other person in your life, can make this happen. You hold the key. You can begin your GOOD day today.
