There is no finish line!

I borrowered the title of this post from my Weight Watcher's leader. She said she was working out in the gym one day and saw a poster of a woman working out... the title of the poster said, "There is no finish line" - a poster by Nike. This really hit home with me. For most people reading this, weight loss is an ongoing battle. Some of us gain weight after having babies. Some gain weight due to emotional eating. Some of us just plain love food and can get carried away over time. No matter what the case may be, maintaining a healthy weight is a battle we will always fight. I am a HUGE believer in weight loss goals and fitness goals. There is a start and there if a finish. But in the land of maintaining a healthy weight and lifestyle, there is no finish line. Once we think there is... that's when the weight creeps up and before you know it we're back to being overweight. Choose the journey. Embrace the journey. The rewards are ENDLESS. Feeling good. Looking good. A healthy heart. A healthy life. A longer life. You name it, it's yours for the taking! Get started and enjoy the ride!!!
