Why??

My husband tells me I am a little obsessed over my fitness journey. The thing with me is that I get hot and heavy in something, and then will fizzle out. I have done it a lot with a lot of different things. I know that if I do not keep it on my mind everyday the same thing will happen. I am not dieting, I hear this a lot from people especially some family members, "oh your on a diet". No I am not on a diet. I chose to cut the unhealthy things from my life. I lost weight I never intend to find the weight again, and I never intend to add those unhealthy things back in my life. To me a diet is a temporary thing where I am depriving myself from certain foods just to lose some weight. Once the weight is off then I go off the diet. Of course when you do that you gain it all back. So no I am not on a diet, no yo-yo fad diets for this gal. I prefer to just eat whole clean foods.

So for me I must keep eating this way everyday. Also it is important for me to keep my motivation to talk about it with others. I get inspired by sharing my story with others, and hearing theirs. Or by motivating others. So why do I want to exercise and eat healthy? I am doing to make myself happy and healthy. I want to be an inspiration to others especially my children. I want them to have me as a positive role model, and have someone to look up to. I want to be healthy to be around for all the important things in their lives. I want to challenge myself everyday to do something to make myself a better person. Yes I am a little obsessed, but I say I would rather be obsessed over being healthy than some of the unhealthy things I was doing before. So why are you doing it? Why is being healthy important to you?
