I’ve finally
set it in my heart to start living healthier and to lose a couple of pounds. I
guess that going to McDonald’s for dinner tonight wasn’t the start I was
looking for, but like my Thinspiration board on Pinterest says: “One bad meal
won’t make you fat, just like one good meal won’t make you skinny.” However, I
believe that many bad meals will make you fat, and many good meals will make
you skinny.
I think my biggest struggle would definitely be giving up
soda. I saw a video on YouTube from AllTime10’s where it said that soda is as
corrosive to teeth as battery acid. Soda drinkers are kind of like smokers in
the sense that there are harmful acids and sugars but the sugar and the
caffeine hooks people to soda, just like how there is tar, formaldehyde,
arsenic and God knows what else in tobacco, but people smoke for the nicotine.
It’s crazy to think how incentive works. I have a huge
incentive for this: for every day that I make my nutritional goals, I’m going
to put a dollar in a jar. I’m also going to do this every time I work out for
more than an hour. I soon hope to make a routine out of this, and contrary to
popular belief, I don’t have a routine, and if I ever have a routine, I don’t
care if I break it. I like structure, but I pad that structure in expectation
of the unexpected.
I know that deep down inside of me is a vixen, which is
stuck inside a thick sweet exterior. I’m like a cinnamon stick, but cloaked
over me is a thick coating of white chocolate, (not that my white chocolate
sweetheart personality is bad.) But I’m tired of being super sweet. I just get
burned that way. I’m not timid or weak. I have an amazing brain: witty,
intelligent, hilarious, a little bit cocky and unique. I’m confident in my
brain, now I just have to unlock the confidence in the casing around it. Sounds
like a quest. Challenge accepted.
