Marathon, not a sprint

I have been humbled this week at the tough reality of making a lifestyle change.  I was motivated the first time, but am so used to associating food to fun times with family and friends that it is hard to break bad habits.  But, I need to remember it is not a sprint, it is a marathon.  I am pacing myself and taking it one step at a time.  I made it a week with no full test pop, only diet.  This may seem easy to some, but for me that is a huge step that I hope to build on.

Next step is cutting out food at night.  The later I stay up the easier it is for the hunger to start up.  If I can stay disciplined and focused these small steps will jump start my lifestyle change.  I am trusting God through this and understanding that everything I do is to glorify Him in every way.  Time to turn it into Beast Mode just like Christ.  24-7-365
