Well timed words

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go
Just remember how far you have come
Remember everything you have faced, all the battles you have won and all the fears you have overcome.
You Can Do It.

This was the first post I read this morning on Weight Watchers 100+ pounds to lose message board.  Profound!  And seriously what I needed to hear precisely at that moment!  Not that I've been struggling, but the closer I get to goal, the harder it gets and the farther away it seems.  I need to remember the person I was, how little stamina I had, how much of my kids childhood I was watching from the sidelines, how many years I was taking off my life.  I need to remember that I've lost 81.2 pounds.  Over 80 pounds!!!  That's a hell of a lot of weight!  I need to remember that what I can do now, I couldn't do then, I've come a long way.  A really long way!  

I'm doing this.  I have done this.  I'm already successful, these last 26.2 pounds are gravy.  I just need to let them happen.  I need to keep plugging away, it'll come.  This is my life now.  And I like it!  I want it this way!  I'm not starving, dieting, avoiding, sacrificing and I'm doing it.  

I got this.
