"The FINAL Click"

I was asked this past weekend..."what made it click for me"....and I can say I honestly don't know. It was a number of things but mainly it was just way pass due. If I had a dime for every time I said I was going to start a diet, I've had enough of being overweight or anything to do with eating right and exercising....I would have me a bad pair of red bottoms!! I do know that after my mom went into the hospital for what I think was the third time in a matter of 2 years for heart problems. I realized how much medicine she was taking and for sooooo many different things. I told myself then that enough was enough and there was no way I was going to have to carry a large bag around full of medicines with me.

It is definitely a daily struggle for me, but what has made it much easier is having positive people around me who are on a journey of their own. Someone to encourage you to eat healthy and workout. My friends around me don't realize how much they have encouraged me to keep going. After starting this blog, I stop posting due to time constraints and the fact that I honestly felt like I was boring the world and no one was really reading my post. I later started a Facebook group (My Journey Back to Me(Us)) which has since then became Our Journey Back to Us. Through that Facebook group I realized the magnitude of a what simple post could do! So many people have told me how I have motivated them and encourage them to continue or even to start on their own personal journey! Such a great feeling knowing someone else has benefited from something you said or did:) Now not only do I have myself holding me accountable but I have over 130 other individuals doing the same...and sometimes that just what you need!

I am excited about my journey and that of so many others! Can't wait to see the end results:)

Until next time....Love you to health:)
