Staying positive

Mar 10, 2011

As I sit here, thinking about what I've accomplished so far, I'm absolutely amazed, not just by the shedding of excess pounds & fat, or that I'm sticking to my lifestyle change.  No, what amazes me the most is the positive support & encouragement that I've received not just from my family, or my buddies from Options, but by my crew at work! These ladies have done so much in helping me keep my positive mindset after my Options class at Kaiser ended.  Yes, my classmates and I do keep in touch via e-mail, etc., and we continue to support each other on our journey to a healthier life.  But, it's the ladies I work with, especially Pam & Oletha, who have been my biggest cheering section & biggest support.  I can't begin to thank them enough for everything they've done for me, especially now, when it has become painfully clear that the man I thought was "the one" has really shown his true colors and I realize that, in order for me to progress down the right path, towards a happier, healthier life I will have to make my journey without him.  I see how toxic being with him is, and will continue to be.  It's hard to stay positive when you're with someone who's so negative, 24/7.  I'm also very grateful for Gaiam & their wonderful website, SparkPeople, Richard Simmons, and, last, but most certainly not least, OH and all the wonderful friends I've met here!  With all the help I have staying positive, how can I possibly fail?  Thank you ALL!
