When X happens I will be Y. Or, if only I had this than I would be able to do that.
To quote a genius ~ "Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
That's what I'm practicing this week. One moment at a time, one meal at a time, one work out at a time.
Yesterday, I shut off the phone and just went out ~ nice long (for me) run 4 miles. Then spent the evening with Mo at the beach ~ swimming and just taking in the sunset. I spend a lot of time fantasizing about living elsewhere, where the cost of living is less and I have wide open fields full of horses and mountain trails to bike ~ grass is greener syndrome. The truth is I am damn lucky to be here and I just need to appreciate where I am in life. Keep'in it simple. A wise man once said "Mo money. Mo Problems" I know he was right ~ all you gotta do is watch the news.
Eh ` enough randomness for the day ~ Boot camp tonight: I'm ready for a good ass whippin!
What a great thing for all of us to keep in mind while on this journey (and after too right?) I think everyday "I cannot wait to get this weight off!" but you know what? I'm really enjoying the changes that I see everyday. And as LBG says - maintenance is just as tough as losing sometimes because there is no finish - but you don't get the accolades and praise that you get while you're losing. Hmmm living in the moment. I like that. Thanks V!
