My epiphany

I just deleted everything I blogged the other day because I realized that all I was doing was finding excuses for being fat.  I was justifying it in my mind.  I was complaining (whining) about how hard it is to lose weight and keep it off.  I had so, so many excuses!  It is but that's not the point. 


I had an epiphany. 


I need to stop whining.


I need to stop making excuses.


If I don't like something about my life, I need to man the fuck up and change it!


This applies to much more than going on a diet. 


I realized that all of my excuses and complaints about how hard it is, were getting in the way of my actually doing anything about the very thing I was unhappy about.  My excuses and complaints are obstacles to my moving forward in a positive direction. 


It has to stop! 


Time to man the fuck up and deal!!


This is why I write.  It helps things crystalize in my brain and every now and then a light bulb turns on.
