Day 1216 - 4 years!! Decision-Day Anniversary

D-Day!! 4 years!!! July 30, 2006 - July 30, 2010



Who the heck is this headless "blimp"??
It is a gal who did not like herself.
It is a gal who did not like what she saw in the mirror.
It is a gal who didn't feel worthy.
It is a gal who was lazy.
It is a gal who was undisciplined.
It is a gal who settled for ordinary.
It is a gal who made excuses why she can't.
It is a gal who wanted instant gratification.
It is a gal who told herself how "bad" she was, how fat she was, and who told herself, 'Why even try, you'll just mess up anyways."
That gal is ME!!
I was 240 lbs!!! unhappy, unmotivated, lazy, ordinary.

After seeing this pic of myself...I was sick and tired of being sick and tired of being that fat gal I saw in the mirror everyday.

I didn't want to be that gal anymore!!! So what did I have to do?
I had to change some things to change some things!
I had to change my beliefs about myself.
I had to change my habits.
I had to get off my lazy fat butt and move it!
I had to change my diet..I had to get rid of my "best friend"----"Little Debbie".
I had to get disciplined.
I had to aspire for extraordinary.
I had to stop making excuses why I can't and start finding reasons to.
I had to practice delayed gratification until I reached my goal
I had to change what I was saying to myself.



When I started getting results, I got excited!
I worked my butt off!! I went all out! I worked out with intensity! I had to affirm with conviction what I wanted!
Did I reach my goal in one week? NO.
Did I reach my goal in one month? NO.
Did I reach my goal in one year? NO!!
So what kept me going?
I could never quit!!! I could always improve.
I had lots of bumps in the road! Plateaus. Injury. Illness. "Comfortableness".
I kept pushing on!!
I held my self accountable.
I found a group of like-minded people(Adam and the shredders) who also held me acocuntable.
I could never quit!!
and what are the results of my efforts?




So how do I get to this? I press on! Never Quit!
Don't drop out when the going gets tough.
Don't quit when you are "bored".
Don't quit when you are not seeing results fast enough.
Don't quit when you are stressed.
Don't quit when you are "unmotivated".
When you are striving for something worthwhile, you don't quit!
You do what ordinary people are unwilling to do.
You find a Powerful Reason Why!
You keep that end goal in mind.
You tell yourself what you want to be!
You have Faith!!
You Believe!!

You don't get bored when you are getting results!
You get excited! You get fired up! You get motivated to press on!
So how do you get results?
You Never Quit!!! You push hard! You up the intensity! You make sure your diet is in order.
You do all you can do and then you push yourself a little bit more!

THAT'S WHAT YOU DO!

THAT'S WHAT I DID!

AND I WILL DO IT AGAIN!!! Only BETTER!

Today is my "D-day"(decision day) 4 year anniversary! Today, four years ago, I finally decided enough was enough! I had enough of that "fat blimp" gal I saw in the mirror everyday. And decided that day to change.

So Cut your Whining!! and just do it!!

I AM UNSTOPPABLE!!!

Are you a "Shredder"? or are you a slacker?

I AM UNSTOPPABLE!!
