the title is pretty self explanatory. "Taking Control". I have spent too long allowing my feelings: physical and/or mental to control me. it's time to change all that (past time, really).

as of today, I am taking back my life. I want the control back. I want to feel good and be healthy and I can't do it if I continue on the way I am.

I am embarrassed and upset with myself that I'm where I am. I honestly believed I would not ever be anywhere near close to this size again. yet...here I am basically with the same issues I had before I ever started this journey so long ago.

today and the future is MINE! it's mine to do with what I CHOOSE to do. healthy or not healthy. I choose healthy!


now I know, just my saying it is not going to make it be so. I know I'm going to have struggles along the way. I know I'm not going to be perfect. but I have to make a choice and at least start backing up my words with action on a consistent basis.

today I choose to make the changes in the behaviors that I need in order to be the "me" that I want to be.
