Day 1: Restart

Today, I have decided to restart.

Let me explain, I have tried for many months and even years to get to a decent weight where I can feel good about myself and be out of the obesity category.  Over the course of a year I have shifted my eating habits and added exercise except I have one problem and that is long term success. What I mean is I can manage the change in diet and exercise for a short term but fall off the wagon after a few days to weeks.

I realized this is not the only area I struggle with, so I am restarting in all areas of my life.  When I reflect on my life one word comes to mind which is discipline. On this day of March 23, 2019 - I want to be disciplined in every area of my life and than teach others to do the same.

Again, this is my restart.  I know some may think I have it all together but for me I want to not get complacent or just go through the motion. Instead I want to do my best in all areas of life including my health.

Here we go...I know this will not be a sprint instead it is a journey of life i have to take. If you feel you need a shift than you can restart your life anytime as the change has to start with you as no one can do it for you.

Day 1: started with drinking a nutritional supplement called moringa supermix. And my goal is no bread products just veggies, fruits, and protein.

Here I go

2 weeks since Grandpa has been gone......

Next Step…..

On Thursday at 12:45PM (today) my grandpa would have been gone now for two weeks.   The pain still hurts and my heart is still sad at times, but I know that I will make it through.

It has  been good and I am getting back to some normalcy.  The last few days I can say that I have received clarity and the path I am taking is so clear to me.  This is hard to say but I have changed and I know for a moment I thought I lost my drive but really I have it back and it is stronger than ever.  I do know that I will do whatever it takes to continue my grandpa’s legacy, his work ethic, love for family, and the ability to live every moment.  He was a man that always worked but at the same time lived life to the fullest.  During his retirement he lived and even up to the day he went into surgery he was living life as normal. 

So I take this moment and say sorry to the people I have not talked with for the last few weeks and to those who had no idea what I have been going through, but this event in my life has been a world wind and I am finally coming up for air.  

So back to my next step……while I am sorry but that is a mystery and I think for now I will keep it to myself.  Just know that the steps I am taking today are leading to the master plan and know that God is leading the pack.

So I end with this…..losing someone you love is a healing process, and through time I believe if everyone has a fight in them they will make it through.  Remember to keep fighting and live everyday like it is your last.  Love your family and strive for your dreams because with determination and hard work a person can do whatever they set their mind too.

So for now I am out - J
