Not Giving Up

So yesterday I was in my car which is still filled with all my Halloween stuff from the party including all the candy. As I was going to school straight from work I was hungry and a little depressed and so I started eating candy. I ate at least 5 pieces of chocolate and then called Brandon. When he answered I said "I ate candy" and he laughed. "That's why you called me?" But it was really helpful because he encouraged me and reminded me that not all is lost. I can make up for 5 pieces of candy.

I went to the gym last night and read my homework. I did the elliptical for an hour. It felt SOOO good. I have realized that by not making excuses I actually feel better about myself. Plus I am not distracted from getting my reading done and I get a workout. It feels good to be productive and use your time for good things.

Don't give up! So you ate 5 pieces of candy today. That doesn't mean all is lost and you can skip your workout or blow the whole week. Just get back on track. Not next week, not tomorrow- right now! You can do it!
