If Nothing Changes, Nothing Changes

Wow, saw this post on SparkPeople's Facebook page yesterday and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I have to change before my body can!

Sooooo - in answer to my last blog - no, the severe restricting of calories did not work for long. You and I both knew it wouldn't, didn't we?

My therapist and I had a long talk and she told me to grab hold of a saying that was close to my heart and hang on. That evening I found a "pretty" in the store - a rock shaped like a foot that says "Believe." I bought that rock and have hardly let go of it. Then the quote about changes smacked me in the head.

So what am I going to do? I am back to exercising and will be eating a medium-carb diet. Years ago was my truly first time losing weight and I did that by walking a lot. Now I can't walk one step without using two canes and then only to get in the truck. I use a wheelchair for everything outside of the house.

So I have a new goal. I want to be able to walk again, even if I still need the canes, by my wedding anniversary on June 8th, 2016. I AM GOING TO DO THIS!

By the way, Happy Spark Anniversary to me on March 15th. I've been with SparkPeople for 10 YEARS!!
