Day 74 - Fabulous Friday

Why fabulous? Why NOT fabulous? We are all fabulous & we MUST remember this…if you forget…don’t worry – I’ll remind you…hey you – ya you – YOU ARE A FABULOUS LADY or SIR…Madame or Mister!

Well, we made it through another week...if you’re like me, you kinda dread the weekend a little.  Don't get me wrong…I don't dread it because it’s the weekend...I dread it because it takes me out of my Monday to Friday routine...things get shaken up...this can be scary & challenging…for me at least. Maybe you can relate – maybe not.

All I can say is stick to your routine as best as possible & BE STRONG!  Don't give in to the temptation...it will only make the next workout that much harder (that’s the way I look at it anyway) Keep telling yourself this & you’ll be fine...You’ll also feel so so good after making great choices...case in point.  Just as I'm typing this, a colleague came to my desk & plunked a mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cup on my desk (he’s an evil man) & said...there you go...enjoy.  Without blinking, I said...no thanks, I can't...done!  He said...come on, one little bar won’t hurt ya...again, I said, no thanks!  End of story.  Avoided temptation - with one quick no thanks. I was like a great gunfighter of the past, drew my gun & blew him down...great willpower.  I am really proud that I didn't give in...I've done that too much in the past. See everyone, if there’s hope for me, there’s hope for you too!  Did I want it - you bet your sweet ass I did.  BUT, I know how extra hard I would have to work to burn it off & it really wasn't worth it at this time...maybe another time for sure. Great steps…this just shows how you can change & develop a lifestyle change over time & with hard work, dedication & persistence.

You can do it ladies & gents!  It’s not easy but it is worth it.  I hope everyone has a great weekend full of fun, excitement, continued workouts or great rest days...however you spend your weekends - make sure you are smiling & making the most.

And…if you find yourself needing help – send a lifeline, post a comment…reach out to your DietBet village. We will answer & help you get through it or give ya a great big HIGH FIVE of encouragement. Either way – you’re not alone…

LAUGH, LOVE & SMILE...the rest will take care of itself...BE KIND to YOURSELF & OTHERS!
