72 month financing!

I was driving down the street today when I passed a sign sitting in front of Chipolte that said "72 month financing available".  "Wow" I thought as I drove by.  I quickly realized that the sign was for the mattress store next to Chipolte.  But it got me thinking, how often have I eaten things that I am still paying for years later?  I would say it's likely that it has been too many times to count!

I turned a corner one day and food went from being nourishment to something completely different.  I  have many, many thoughts on what it became and why but that is less important to this story than how I have chosen to break out of that.  Each of us have to determine what makes us overeat and neglect our bodies and good health and that determination will be very personal for each of us.  However, once it is made the road to good health can be very similar.

For me, my road is filled with daily decisions of how to nourish my body and what exercise I should do.  Do not believe that it is easy.  It has been very hard for me to lose 45 pounds so far.  I have lost the same five pounds over and over again on the last few months,  but I know that the key is to try to make the next decision a good one.  One decision at a time.

So the next time you have a decision of what to eat or whether you will exercise, will you make one that you will pay for or reap benefits from?  It is up to each of us!!
