Real With Myself
I thought today was a good day to weigh-in, to face the scale and be real with myself. It is said that the iron does not lie. Hey, they does not either. It is what it is. Beside, it is not like I did not have an idea where I stood with the weight. With doctor appointment every other week, I get the chance to see the weight go up and down, the last six months. They say hey don’t worry that is expected due to the different types of medication you are taking. What makes matters worst, I am taking five different hypertension medications. Am I screwed? No, I realize that it could be worst. Inspite of everything that is going on, I consider myself blessed. My diet: I am trying to consume more fruits and vegetables and healthier snacks. I am feeling better, but get tired easily. Do I give up? No, I am inspired and motivated by the progress of others. Everytime I read someone’s profile, I am encouraged. I see myself as being stronger, and I believe I will achieve a stronger and healthier body. Someone once said, "inorder to make a change, you must be real with yourself." I will admit that I am a little nervous about getting back into the gym. Why? I am noticeably weaker; I have tremors, sometimes uncontrollable. But I know that once I get started, I will be fine. It just taking that first leap of faith. I will not return to the gym until after July 8, so I am doing push ups and situps to get me started. I realize that my attitude will determine my altitude.
