How Bad!!!



Bring on the anger! I don’t know if it is that I have not been getting very good sleep, over the last few night. Maybe it is my body trying adjusting to not having crap food and pop. Overall it was a good day with eating and getting some exercise. I seemed to eat a lot of sodium today. I have been thinking a lot about bad food today. After going shopping to pick up the last few gifts I drove over to Buffalo Wild Wing. I sat there for a bit and thought about going in. I decided to drive away… it is not what I want the most. I have spent of my life going after quick rewards, instant satisfaction. I want more! And I know I am going to have to put the work into get what I want. I need to work like we do in drumline, put in countless hours from September to May to perform a six minute show. Thousands of hours of work for six minutes and yes it is totally worth it. It is all comes down to changing my thoughts and deciding what I want more, and how badly I want it.

Fed Up!!!



Last night was a rough night. I don’t know why but I kept waking up every hour and sometimes every twenty or thirty minutes. Every time I work my body was warm and sweaty. Ya, I know kind of gross.

Today went very well for me, eating good and being active. Overall I am feeling very positive. In the past year I have learned a lot about health and food. Some that makes me feel positive, and some that makes me feel very disappointed. It is hard for me to accept what we in my area are doing to people in our community members, and what we accept as being okay. One of the things that have taught me a lot in a very short time is Harvey Brooker. My father paid for me to go for a bit, but I had to stop because I could not afford it at the time. I am working to afford to go back. They always talk about a documentary called “Fed Up”. I highly recommend it to everyone.

I Don't Need Excuses!



Well it is day one. I was not planning on starting until January 1st.  Recently I have been blessed with someone special in my life. It has given me motivation and hope. It didn’t make sense to wait ten more days. I have waited long enough. Something I have always to the students I work with is “I don’t need excuses, I need results!” It is time to walk the walk and get ready for the next part of my life.

Today I have been active; I have eaten right and officially stopped drinking pop. I have to be honest that I am scared. In the past I have tried to live a healthy live and have failed every time. You may ask what is different about this time, well I am ready. I have more knowledge then before, I have lots of support in my life and I have great reason and motivation.

Don’t get me wrong I know that it is going to be a struggle. I know I will hit many hurtles and I will fall many times.  The best I can do is take it one day at a time, be prepared, and when I fall get right back up!!!
