Ya know, I didn’t expect to say this after more than a month into my new personal little journey, but I am still struggling here a little bit. Logically, one would assume that after hanging in there this long, I would be back in the same old groove again with no problem. That would have certainly been my guess after a month. Unfortunately, that is so not the case.  I am doing okay…don’t get me wrong. Still watching what I eat, keeping myself active and of course, keeping a positive attitude. I’m trying to anyway. Some days I just can’t help but feel like I am just going through the motions.



Just doing enough when I know I could be…and should be…pushing a whole lot harder. No idea what it is lately…this week especially. I kinda feel like I am just a little bit off. Just trying to catch that wave of momentum and inspiration that I keep hoping will wash over me. It amazes me that after all these years there is still that same old little shred of doubt in me. That little voice in the back of my head that is trying to derail me. You think it would be gone by now. At least I can say that I am at an age where I am old enough to know that it will probably always be there.



And I am smart enough to know not to listen to it. I might feel like I am just going through the motions for now. But the important thing is that I keep moving forward…and I never give up. Once I start listening to that little voice, then the journey is over. And that extends to a whole lot more than just losing weight where I am concerned. So I hope everyone out there is looking forward to a good weekend ahead. I also hope none of you are listening to that bad little voice in the back of your mind either. If you will excuse me, I have a Friday evening workout to get to. Monday will be here before you know it and the scale is always waiting for me.



Until tomorrow!
