My 5 Words

The 5 words I picked were for the award in my last post.

I wanted to elaborate on it, 

because I thought a lot before settling on one.

Yesterday's Gone, Live for Today

 This applies to my weight loss journey,

Because I have tried to think this way,

I no longer have 'start over' days, weeks or months.

That has helped me tremendously,

not throwing away a whole week because I messed up.

It applies to my life too...

I was going to say "Forget Yesterday, live for Today"

but I don't want to forget.

Yesterday is what made me who I am,

and if I forget, I will not be me....

and I will repeat the mistakes of my past.

Again, that goes with my weight loss and my life.

Of course I have days
where thinking of yesterday affects me,

gets me down...

But it's part of my life.

I can't change it,

but I can learn from it.

I think this will be a new motto for me,

of course I won't forget the one I've lived by since I can remember

"It Could Always be Worse"

but I like this new one :)
