A health, fitness, and weight-loss story.

Believe!!!

Somewhere along the line I stopped believing. I think it happened when the pain from the then-undiagnosed kidney stone was so severe. My world just fell apart. Pain is a horrible thing to endure.

I stopped believing in myself. I got so frustrated. I had a diet thrown at me that I did not want to comply with. I was just simply overwhelmed. I stopped believing I could ever achieve my weight-loss goals.

I never stopped believing in my quest for fitness--I've had a couple of killer workouts this weekend.

I was thinking about those workouts and about the whole weight loss thing. If I don't believe I can do this, then I won't. It's that simple. I think I have proof of that.

So it's time to start believing again. It's time to dig out a few favorite photos from the past and stick them on the fridge. It's time to visualize what I want.

Like I used to say...I can do that! I can and I will.

  6. Jo...you are truly an inspiration! I understand how you are feeling 100%. When my back & hip pain get really bad, I just seem to give up on myself and the whole idea of losing weight. I'm so glad that I found your blog! I believe that you can do anything that you put your mind to! And, thanks to you, I'm going to start believing in myself too!
