Those two words have been running through my head since my spinning class earlier this week. One of my instructors kept insisting that we push ourselves past our comfort level and then in the last few minutes continued to tell us to finish strong. And well it hit a cord with me, I know that it was only a 45min class but it got me thinking. Over a year and 1/2 I have lost almost 60lbs, before I started I never thought I could do it. I had every excuse in the book, I don't have enough money, I can't do it alone, me exercise you have to be kidding, I'm just big boned. All lies! The truth is even if I didn't have money for the gym or weight watchers I some how had money for that movie and pizza, I'm not alone I have God by my side and a whole lot of people that have cheered me on along the way (http://bcolling.wordpress.com/ , http://less2cmo2love.blogspot.com/ ,http://stevewallen.blogspot.com/), exercise starts just be walking to the mail box, and people God made all our bones and big boned isn't really an option.
So all week I have been thinking about finishing strong. I've lost 60lbs and I have 30lbs to go, I'm 2/3 the way to my goal. I only have that 1/3 to go....I must FINISH STRONG. I've pushed myself way past my comfort level......I need to FINISH STRONG. I've changed my life for the positive........I will FINISH STRONG!
So here is to finishing strong, when you see me you have all permission to ask me how things are going.
