Life is a series of ups and downs. For the past 2 months I've been in a down. I saw my coach Karen and we were able to talk some things through. We took pictures, weighed in...when I saw my pics, I was MORTIFIED!!!! I had not only gained the weight I worked so hard to lose, but GAINED some more!!!!
At first I felt defeated, but had to get a different perspective on it. I had to come to grips that because I was in this downward spiral, it would only be natural to gain my weight PLUS some - as I was not doing what I was supposed to be doing. THIS is my consequence. But I WILL NOT beat myself up about it. I just start over....starting TODAY! Back on 21 Day Fix program, doing my exercises, runs, etc...
Life is going to have its ups and downs ALL THE TIME! How we handle those ups and downs is so crucial to our journey. I'm not saying that we are going to handle life perfectly all the time...but if we stay focused on what our goal is and realize that THIS journey is not over until we die. Food choices and whatever activity we choose to do - it's a LIFESTYLE - not a diet or just something we do to lose weight...it's to be HEALTHY!
So when life throws you curve balls, and it will, how will you handle it? How will you navigate your ups and downs?
