My New Beginning

Good Evening Everyone,

I know a couple days have passed since my last blog. I am proud to say that I am making progress with my diet. I know in my previous blog, I mentioned that there were other things that inspired me to pursue my diet on a serious level. I was also motivated to loose weight when I received my ah ha moment. I was sitting in the couch watching Oprah Next Big Moment or whatever that show is called and I was watching the episode with Toni Robbins. During his seminar with a crowd of people, he said, "As humans, we are crowded with so much negativity and it deters us from our dreams. The reality is that we can do what we want to do. We can accomplish anything we want to accomplish, but we make so many excuses to stop us. Instead of saying I want to do this or I want to do that; say that I must and then just do it". And it was the truth. I always made excuses why I couldn't loose weight, but the reality was that I was too lazy to do it. I made the excuse that I was big boned, that I am fine this way I am, etc. When the reality was that I was lazy. I got up and I told myself, "Its no longer a matter of me wishing that I loose weight. I want to lose weight, I must loose weight. No hold barred." As humans beings, we tend to not give ourselves credit for our ability shaping our destiny. We have the the power to shape our destiny and to make our dreams come true, but we deny ourselves of that ability. I think that we do that because we do not want to take responsibility for our destiny because it will mean that we must work hard to accomplish it. This in turn will then mean that we are responsible for our actions. Take charge of your life and shape your destiny. By the way, I lost another two pounds, bringing my total to 5 lbs.
