That pretty much says it all. Just do the work. If you don't do the work, then don't make excuses, just own it. Look yourself in the mirror and admit that you didn't do the work. You don't have to answer to anyone but yourself because the desire to lose weight and get in shape must be all about you. You can not do it for anyone else or it just won't happen.
Yes, I want to get into that sexy red dress, which I know my husband will enjoy, but I want to be able to look in the mirror and see myself in that sexy red dress. I want to walk into a room and know that I look good. Whether I turn heads or not, it's about how I will feel knowing that I did the work and I earned that dress for myself. So that I could celebrate not only my 10th anniversary, but hopefully many more because I made sure that I got myself healthy.
I'm going to be 43 in a couple months. I don't feel 43 and thankfully, I have been pretty healthy. But I want many more years because there is still so much I want to do. And yes, I know that life is not a guarantee, but I'm going to give myself the best shot at living a long and healthy life.
So no excuses! If I don't do the work, I don't get the dress. If I don't do the work, that is my fault. Sure, life will throw us curveballs and sometimes, we just can't find the desire to move more or to eat the right things, but when that happens, own it. Admit it. And then make the next step a step in the right direction. Don't keep yourself down. Pull yourself up and get moving!
