Ante Up

Apr 27, 2009

I know, I know...it's a poker term, but HEY! It fits...weight loss surgery IS a gamble, that pays off! That is, if you're willing to Ante Up.

I have lost four lbs. in a week, making GOOD food choices, and exercising and moving, moving, moving (park faaaaaarrr away at Wal-Mart,etc.) It sounds crazy but I am just determined to RELAX about this whole thing and darn it if it hasn't paid off. That's not to say I have become complacent or lax in continually striving to make better food choices, or increaseing my exercise. On the contrary, I have become more determined, more focused...but it has become purpose-driven!

You don't win in poker without putting something EXTRA in the pot, and in Life it's the same thing, without an extra re-assement, or an extra dose of confidence or...whatever, you won't win. You gotta ante up. 'Nuff said.
