You've Never Failed If You Haven't Given Up

I keep hearing these advertisements about quitting smoking and how many people try and fail many times before they get it right.

The mantra that has seen me through these many years is that you've never failed if you haven't given up. And you can quote me on that.

So it's back in the saddle again; hopefully taking what I've learned from my past failures and adding wisdom so that I can ultimately make it to my success.

I only know that the last few months I have never found enough time for me. The few times in my life where I've successfully lost weight and kept it off were always about finding time for me. Go figure.

There's something about giving and giving until you have nothing left that leaves me particularly vulnerable to overeating. It's as if the indulgence of taking something in becomes as necessary as air to breath or water to drink. Unfortunately, taking in carrots and strawberries doesn't quite do the same thing. Again, it's back to that full, immobile feeling that comes from starches, fats, and sugars.

I'll keep you posted!
