Do It For Love

Would you allow your children to abuse themselves and/or someone in your life that you love dearly?  NO you would not!  Then, why do you continue to allow yourself to abuse you?  Whatever do I mean?  Well, I'll tell you ;-)  It's like this:  If you are still on the excuse-a-go-round and not eating supportively or working your body out, then you are in fact harming yourself.  In the short run depending on where you are on your fitness journey and what your health is like as well as your genetic lottery, then you may be okay in the short run....but the long run could be a very different story indeed.  You are someone's child!  You are special to at least one other individual!  If that someone special in your life had a life threatening disease, you would want them to do everything medically possible to overcome that disease...right?  Then why is taking a few moments each and every day to prevent life threatening and/or life shortening situations any different?  Beyond the example you set for those around you (especially those fragile little beings entrusted in our care...Your Children Are Watching!), do it for yourself.....and....If not for your own sake, if not for money in your pocket instead of the insurance companies/doctors/medicine, then do it for love...that someone special in your life!  Take a step outside of what is routine and comfortable and challenge yourself today to take at least one excuse away and replace with the healthy choice you have been neglecting!  This blog is full of helpful tips and information and free workouts, and I am always available at cagib1@charter.net.
