I have been working on a better me for awhile and I haven’t noticed a change. I changed how I ate, started walking, and did everything I could. I had to stop and rethink and really ask myself “Am I doing all I can do?”

I am laughing, because people tell you – you don’t have to change, because you look good as you are. I shake my head knowing their lies. I have come to realize people know they are not at their best and there was NO WAY they were going to encourage you to be better then they are…

I have always talked about going meatless. I even tried a few times, but only lasted a day. I will not give up eggs, but I don’t eat that every day and one still needs a little protein in their life….

I know I can do this, because it cost me over a hundred dollars to shop for my new way of eating. I started with squash, zucchini, and tomatoes over rice. Yesterday, we had a veggie stir fry over fried rice. Tonight is a big pot of veggie soup and that will cover the next 2 or 3 days. (I  do have a young man in the house)

If I can drink a pitcher of water, and I REALLY DO NOT LIKE DRINKING WATER!!! I can do anything. I am ignoring those who don’t believe I can change how I eat or lose weight. (They are now passing friends and I am okay with that)

I only have one life to live and I am choosing to live my  life the BEST  as I can and SMILING through each step. I wish I others could understand they don’t have to bring others down to make them feel better, because we all only have control over our own body and WORDS WILL NEVER BRING DOWN A STRONG PERSON…

So, stand Strong, and be your BEST!!!!!!!
