I doubted myself today. I actually wanted to give up and delete the blog, stop working out, and stop eating healthy. It seem like things were a lot easier when I didn't care. But then I thought about why I am doing this, to escape a future of physical pain and early death. I know that sounds harsh, but that is truly what is in store for me based on my genetic makeup. Luckily, for me that doubt went away which leads me to my lessons learned for this week.
Lesson 1 - Know your purpose. Why are you doing this? What is the ultimate goal? Those questions are what you should focus on when you are completing a lifestyle change because that is the only way you are going to stay focus.
Lesson 2 - Find a balance. I have said this before, I am trying to stop 31 years of bad habits and it is not going to happen over night. Having a balance between good and bad (that favors the good) will help to prevent the urges to give up or eat Red Velvet Cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory (That OMG was soooo good) on the same day that you eat something else high in fat.
