A bad haircut. Those horrible words you said to your
last boyfriend. That Enron investment. We all have things we regret
doing. Things we wish we could take back, or turn around, or undo.
Unfortunately, though, much in life is the real deal and set in stone
once it's in the past. What's done is done. Bygones. But here's the
good news: we know of one big fat exception…
Fat! Yes, weight. Those good ole L-B-S's. That giant
pizza you devoured every Sunday this past football season. The two
dozen cookies that disappeared last Tuesday night. All that beer you
drank over the holidays. Sure, it probably wreaked havoc on your
waistline…but it's totally "undo-able." Isn't that great?
That's right—to "undo" is "doable"!
Not many times do we get to fix something, or take back
an error in judgment, but when it comes to our weight, and how we got
that way, that's exactly what we get to do. We get to fix it. We get a
second chance. And that's a beautiful thing.
Now that it's January, it's the perfect time to give
ourselves that second chance and focus big time on becoming healthier,
and downright happier, in the New Year. Let's face it, more food and
drink isn't really going to make you happier, is it? At this point,
maybe it's likely to make you even more frustrated or wishing even
harder that things were different.
So make them different, starting today.
Stick to you guns and realize you really can "undo" any
damage that's been done, lose weight, and create a whole new and
improved you. People do it all the time.
Now it's your turn for a do-over.
