I set a goal to be 190 pounds by my birthday, May 26th. This is a good goal. This is an attainable goal but it seems to be slipping out of reach. Not really but it is. I am exercising, but not hard enough. I am making some healthy food choices but not all the time. I am not fully committed to reaching my goal. I want to reach my goal but it seems too HARD. I know I CAN DO HARD THINGS but I want that food more. Darn food!!!
I am recommitting myself to my goal. I will go out for a run today with my running partner for first time this season and I hope I can keep up and not die. A little dramatic but I haven’t had a good outside run since last fall, that is a long time ago. We are only running 2 miles so I should be okay even if we have to walk. So this is my mind set right now. I need to trust in the Lord and let Him take my food cravings/addiction from me and move forward in reaching my goal.
I reread “Forget me Not” from October General Conference this morning and it really helped. I have posted it below. We all need this message!!!
WATCH IT!!!
For another great post on “Forget Me Not” hop over to my friend Barbara’s post it is a wonderful post that I can relate to 100%.
UPDATE: We ran our 2 miles and we killed it!!! We kept between 9:13 and 9:30. WOW!!! I now have hope that I can run my half marathon the end of June and actually run it well.
Love this talk so very much! I too reread it just recently and it was exactly what I needed that morning. :) You can accomplish this goal! Have a fun run today, the sun is out for you...and the sun makes everything better!
