Im not quitting, nope!

Don't Quit

When you've eaten too much and you can't write it down
And you feel like the biggest failure in town;
When you want to give up just because you gave in
And forget all about being healthy and thin;
So What! You went over your calories a bit;
It's your next move that counts...So don't you quit! 

It's a moment of truth, It's an attitude change;
It's learning the skills to get back in your range;
It's telling yourself "You've done great up till now;
You can take on this challenge and beat it somehow."
It's part of your journey toward reaching your goal;
You're still gonna make it, just stay in control. 

To stumble and fall is not a disgrace
If you summon the will to get back in the race;
But, often the struggler's when losing their grip
Just throw in the towel and continues to slip
And learn too late when the damage is done
That the race wasn't over and they still could of won. 

Life-style change can be awkward and slow
But facing each challenge will help you to grow;
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint in the cloud of doubt.
When you're pushing to the brink, just refuse to submit;
If you bite it you write it... But Don't you quit! 

Thats exactly what I needed to read this morning! I didn't eat the best last night, I was having some personal issues and the next thing I knew I was fiving into a box of strawberries and dipping them in Chocolate. Yummy, but bad to the bone. I learned and after reading this little motivation I learned that im still learning and im going to keep on learning. This is a life-style change and its not going to all soak into me all at once. Im proud of myself for getting as far as I have come! Im happy that im taking it with all the punches that come along and im not giving up!

I hope you all have a nice Tuesday!!!!!

thanks

Thanks, that's just what I needed to read.  We are learning everyday and as long as you take each moment as a learning experience there is no failure. 

Wishing you a healthy and happy day!

Good morning!

Thanks so much for stopping by yesterday, and saying such nice things.  It really does mean a lot to me. 

I've been here a couple times and have not said anything, but have read a little about your AMAZING weight loss.  (which you probably knew I was here.  Gold membership is a neat thing huh? )   Anyway, your weight loss is truly amazing!  You must feel like a new woman!  YOU are quite inspiring yourself.   You should be proud of how far you've come. 

You are right, this whole thing is a learning process. We will always be learning.  I think that is a good thing. 

This poem is great!  I too, like the part your friend brought out above.   It goes right along with the quote in the top of my blog...."the only way to truly fail is to quit trying."

Well, I need to head off to work.  Thanks again for stopping by.  Keep up your amazing learning process. You're doing great!

I received this the other day  from a friend.  Thought you might like it.  This guy just kept trying and trying and he eventually did it.  Love it! 

gold member?

So I have been on here I think as long as you, do you have the gold membership? Do you like it? Is it worth the bucks? I love reading your posts, even when you are down you are able to stand back up and motivate yourself along with others. Great Job, you look amazing and I am sure feel amazing.

Love love love

this poem!  This is a learning process for sure. We just need to stay positive about  all our ups and downs.  You have the right attitude and that's more than half the battle!
