What Keeps Me Going?

I'd like to say money, as I am in a weight loss challenge. 

And while money is a great motivator, it is not the end all.

For those who know me, know that I will only bet on something, 

if I truly believe that I will win.

If and when I bet on me, I will do everything within my power to win.

However, I will not resort to anything untoward or illegal in order

to win.

Before starting this contest, I asked, what are we allowed to do? 

We agreed, no pills but we could juice or use other other combinations

of workouts to win. 

One participant said, he did not care what anyone did. Huh?! He's won

weight loss challenges in the past and can go the distance.

This is my second weight loss challenge.

So, what's keeping me going? 

Faith, Hope, and Love

Faith - I believe that I can do this. 

Hope - I have envisioned myself fit and healthy for years (if you look over this blog you will

see my "failures" over the years).

Love - I love myself enough to change a decade plus of poor choices and bad habits.

This time I am taking steps to stay committed. I am on the rebootwithjoe site reading 

encouraging posts. I am blogging about my journey, successes and failures. And 

finally, I am watching, listening and reading about people who have had documented success

in juicing.

 This lady right here, Carla Douglin, of Raw Raw Life

has been a great inspiration to me. Even though the videos are from last year and previous years,

the knowledge she shares is priceless. 

Look up her info: just search raw raw life

She gives invaluable information on how to break the fast.

(I do not have her permission to post this, but as I am not profiting from this post, I think it is okay.)
