I have lost count of the number of times I have "started over" again. Feeling embarrassed, defeated and like a never ending struggle, I stopped journaling about my journey. Who wants to hear the story of the girl who keeps starting over? In fact, I just did it again last May, started over and rededicated myself to working out and eating healthy.
The last couple of weeks I have considered the "starting over" mindset and realized, for me, it's more damaging than motivational. So, you'll not hear me say starting over again. I am on this forever journey, whether it's jumping on the bandwagon because I fell off or whether it's balancing exercise with our family's busy schedule or refocusing my eating, it's my journey. Someday, my journey will be maintaining and inasmuch as I look forward to that day, I also know that will be a different challenge altogether.
What encouraged me to write again? Well, two things really. I missed it. I loved sharing my updates, my journey, my life with you all - it helped to keep me honest and on track plus it inspired others (thank you for the messages sharing such); additionally, a good friend, Liz writes about her journey and that inspired me to continue to share my story.
So here's my new blog page and my Forever Journey.
