In our busy lives, it is so easy to get caught up in our day-to-day routines that we oftentimes lose track of WHY we are even trying to be healthier, eat healthier, lose weight, or whatever your end goal may be. During stressful moments, it is so much easier just to revert back to old behaviors than to be mindful in the moment. If this sounds like you, do yourself a favor. Take 10 minutes out of your busy schedule and do something nice for yourself. Write yourself a letter about why you want to lose weight and live a healthier life. Is it to have more energy? See your children grow up? To look better? Only you know your reason, but write it down. Save your letter in a safe place. Then the next time you don't feel like taking that 20-minute walk or think you just MUST have that slice of chocolate cake or large fries, take out your letter and read it to yourself. You just might change your mind. I'm off to write my letter now!
