W4: D26; Why did the chicken cross the road?

Greetings my friends,

As I come in to a conclusion to week four of the new leg of my journey, I come to the realization that I was able to begin anew because I am doing this for myself, and no one else.

This has been a reoccurring issue with me in the past as I made changes in my life to please other people.
However this will fall under the category "accept the things I cannot change"

I know you are thinking "but J you are making these changes to your own self"

Yes, but I was making those changes in hopes that I change someone else.

In this my changes became moot.

So it was not until I realize that these changes were for myself and only myself, that I am able to enter this leg of my journey with a renewed vigor and positive attitude toward bettering my self.

So when my scale says that nothing loss, I am not discouraged because my old clothes are hanging off my body as a clown, and newer smaller sizes are now fitting me like a glove, and my muscle tone in my chest arms and abdomen are becoming more defined.

So by this I am now recouraged (or is it encouraged?).

Thank you for seeing me through these past four weeks.

All I have to say going into week five is:

BRING IT ON!!!
