FINDING JULES

This is to chronicle a journey that I began in September 2005. A weight loss journey is what it started out as, but I am coming to find it is more than that it is about being almost 40 and still needing to find out who I am, what I stand for, what my purpose is and what brings me joy! And I am hoping as I peel off the layers of fat, I can find the person I am meant to be and be happy!

JUST KEEP SWIMMING


Today is a new day! Thank God for New days. He must have known that some of us would need them desparately. I feel better today. I got up and went to the gym and did my 40 minutes on the eliptical. It was hard getting there, but once I did I felt great when I was finished and glad that I went.

On the way home from dropping my daughter of at school today, I was listening to one of my favorite radio stations. It is a christian station and very up lifting. The DJ was talking about floundering. Just as I did yesterday("fish out of water"), and he had the best advise. Just keeping swimming no matter what. Made me think of Dora from Finding Nemo. As she would say-"Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming!!"

So I continue to swim and hope that I do not drown;-), or that maybe there will be a cute lifeguard to save me!!

I just sat here and thought about the "just keep swimming" thing for a few minutes, and it really makes sense. Sometimes when dieting and/or exercising you just need to keep going...don't think about it...shut off your mind and just do it. Just keep swimming. It makes so much sense.

Thank you for the little nugget for my brain to chew on! :-)
