Staying motivated

I always start my thoughts with "I hope", "I wish", "I feel like", "I need to". I will be replacing these types of intros with words like, "I will", "I have", "I began", "I implimented". I like that better because it is more decisive. It indicates a strong desire for change. I am just too loosey-goosey about things.

I will eat healthy foods! I have really noticed a major dislike for foods deamed "unhealthy". Sometimes, it does not stop me from eating it. For example, I eat the school lunch and feel yucky all day. It's too salty and not filling. If I eat more veggies, and am full longer. If I eat french fries, I burp 4 hours later. Ewww. I am still looking for major faults to chocolate, however!

This has helped me to stay on track, but I still stray. I want to be a "normal" weight, and to do so, I must continue to eat healthy foods that benefit my well-being.
