You've got to say, "I think that if I keep working at this and
want it badly enough I can have it." Its called perseverance.
                              Lee J. Iacocca

   So many have asked me how  it is that I can  stay with an eating program for 8 months with only a few planned "off program days" here and there.  They ask me if I am bored..
 I am focused, not bored.  I am on a mission and if I continue to work at this the sooner I will reach my goal.  I have no intention of "falling short"  I want to be thin more than anything else I can think of.  Time has not discouraged me or made me less aware of my dream, I haven't wanted to stop, it has done the opposite I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.  That finish line looks mighty fine to me.. Right now I keep thinking so close yet so far away.  I can and will not let down my guard, for that is how dreams vanish.  I realize that I have done well...hell it is about time.  All I have to do is think back and realize how many times I failed to follow my dream, how I would start off  "gung-ho" only to last a week or even a day.
  This eating plan is  now a habit and a good one.  I am in control of food, it no longer controls me and the results have been stupendous, for which I am very grateful.  Also doing this now is a known factor, I am comfortable with it... I look to the future and get butterflies in my stomach wondering and worrying about "lean living". So if I keep my thoughts and action on the moment and take one day at a time, this journey will continue successfully...and that is what I intend on doing...
May you all have a wonderful weekend
