It's Your Choice.

I have written about sacrifice, I have written about motivation, and so many other barriers to weight loss and health and fitness. What is really comes down to is your choice.
Everyone has a choice on how they live their lives. Everything we do, we have the power to choose.
We choose everything, what house we have, what car we drive, what cable company to use. We choose our career path, and although we may not get a job, we choose to work at something or not.

Everyday, we get up and choose what we do, we go to work, we choose our breakfast, lunch and dinner, we choose what show we watch on TV. We choose when we shower, when we brush our teeth and the list goes on.
When it comes to work, we do it because we have to, we have to pay our bills for the things we have chosen. If we have not chosen wisely, we may have to work more to pay for our choices.

What do you spend your money on? Again, it's your choice. Do you go to the movies every week? Do you go to the ball game? Do you shop all the time? Do you go out to eat?
Are you choosing that 49 cent drink at QT that is not good for you? Are you choosing to eat the fast food, that we all know is unhealthy and loaded with fat???
All of these are choices you make every day. For most, there is a finite amount of money and we need to make choices for our spending.

Next question, what do you spend your time on? Time, like money , is not endless for most people. Time marches on and the next thing you know, you are a year older. Gary turned to me the other day and said, our vacation is in 2 weeks, where did the time go? I just went. One day it was June 3rd and we had a month, now we have a little more than 10days. Time waits for no one.

I guess I need to get to a point. We make the choice everyday. It's not a matter of finding the time, it's making the time. We don't need to find money, we need to choose how we are spending it.
You are faced with the choice everyday, are you going to be active and get to the gym? You have the time, you just have to choose to do it. Are you going to buy that membership? You must choose to spend it on your health.
It's cheaper to take care of you now, than wait until you have a major medical problem. Trust me, I am a nurse.

You have the choice to do what you want. You have the power to live life on yours terms, you have to want it and make the choices that will make it happen. Don't make any more excuses, choose it!!
