I promise. You will get the energy you crave only it won't come from a cup O' Joe. It will come from you. You will feel muscle in your body which is amazing when it gives you the control you'll have over your body that you didn't realize you could have. No aches. You'll bend and twist when you didn't know you could go that far down, up, or around. I'm serious. Eating right will start to taste better than eating junk. I would much rather eat a salad with grilled veggies than a piece of chocolate cake. That took a lot of training, but it really is true. It tastes better. It feels better. It digests better. <BR/><BR/>I found out yesterday that I have gestational diabetes AGAIN. I was so pissed I can't even tell you. I took it out on everyone -- my kids included. One of the things I have enjoyed the most about this pregnancy is the food. I have indulged like never before because I know that afterwards I'm going to have to lose 50 pounds anyway. Why not enjoy it while I can? Well when a baby's life and well-being is at stake you don't mess around. You just don't. Now I have to be serious which means no more junk. I know it's better to be healthy and to eat healthy, but for some odd reason I desired to continue in my temporary gluttony and it made me mad that I have to quit. Stupid. But that's flesh for ya.<BR/><BR/>Today is better and my sugar levels have been great. <BR/><BR/>You can do it. It is hard to start. But you will be so happy that you did and if you do it right and for the right reasons you'll never look back. Good luck!! I loved the prayer you wrote too. <BR/><BR/>Heidi ReedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319503167851812914.post-34178709806691277972008-11-11T11:19:00.000-08:002008-11-11T11:19:00.000-08:00You struck on a great truth about STARTING and STO...You struck on a great truth about STARTING and STOPPING... how come its always so hard to START the good stuff and so easy to START the bad stuff? I think its the discipline thing you hit on.
