Reaching...

The fish are jumping all over Lake Macatawa. I see them everytime I pass by the black lake on my walks. Large carp & catfish leaping out of the water, reaching for that tasty morsel that is just above them. I'm still jumping on my weightloss journey, still reaching for that next level. How about you? Are you reaching for that next level or have you fallen back into a "woe is me" attitude because you've fallen off the trail?

Never say quit. I've gotten off track myself. Hell, today is the first day in 2 weeks that I am actually writing down my food & exercise. But I won't quit. I may be down, but I won't be down for long. I have too much riding on my successful weightloss to throw it all away. I have too many people I need to encourage and inspire to change their lives for the better. I've got too many friends and family members counting on me to stick with this.

Jump with me, jump up to that next level, that tasty morsel of pounds lost or clothes size decreases. I've heard it before, nothing tastes as good as thin feels...
