My #1 ~Indyism

Life is happening now, not 10 pounds from now. Don't wait to be thin to act thin. Live!
~Beth Donovan

At 36 years old, I realized I was not living. I was waiting to live until I lost weight. The next chunk of it or all of it before I could _____.

Not fair to me. What if I died before I lost weight? I had been trying and waiting my whole life.

With the very act of deciding to live came that very first ~indyism. I regret nothing now. I take every opportunity without waiting until when, or at least TRY to take the opportunity. Some opportunities come with limiting beliefs about myself that I have to overcome, some come with physical limitations that I have not bee able to overcome, and some come with great reward and freedom!

As I live instead of wait, I discover that the simple act of living, of trying, of challenging oneself is exciting, scary, and helps me lose weight because I am no longer just waiting.
