Little By Little

I realized something not too long ago. When I think about the things I want or the places I want to go to, I ended each thought with...'when I loss weight'. I have fallen into the terrible habit over the years to put so much emphasis on my future plans based on how much I weigh.
Instead, I should have made it a top priority and made those changes instead of sitting off on the side lines and watching life pass me by.

That's what this blog is all about. I am taking my life back and making changes to give me all of the things I want. As Oprah would say, I am taking my power back.
Little by little of course. I am famous for starting something all gung ho and then it fizzles out in a week. Now, I am taking my time making changes where I can.

This week I am doing a detox. I am on Day 2 of the week long 7 day Detox Cleanse. It's going alright. I expected it to be difficult but I think that if I can manage to stick to this for the entire week it will prove to me that when I make up my mind about this I can do it. Surprisingly, I find myself missing and craving coffee the most. I guess that's a tell-tale sign that I drink way too much of it!! I did have a headache yesterday and have one again today.
I'm about to make a very yummy looking salad for dinner. It is full of mixed salad greens, celery, mushrooms and walnuts with a olive oil and lemon dressing. YUM-O!! It will most definitely make up for the vegetable juice I had for lunch!!

I may not be perfect and I may not do this detox perfect but all I can do is give it my best shot. I have a clear head about this and maybe for the first time in a really long time, I finally think that success and happiness are possible. Like I said, little by little. That's all I can ask from myself. I have put far too many expectations on me and that has to stop. I am only human. Only one person.

Thanks for tuning in. Have a great night and I will be chatting to you all soon!
