King Dave Psalms 37:4
Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee
the desires of thine heart.
Laurie Notaro
If you really believe in what you're doing, work hard, take
nothing personally and if something blocks one route, find
another. Never give up.
Richard Nixon
Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down
and grieve. Find another way. And don't pray when it rains if
you don't pray when the sun shines.
Since I have started at Crossfit Forward 9 weeks ago I have
seen a lot of improvements. My weight was around 287lbs
and now I'm around 274lbs. My goal is to get down to
220lbs! My conditioning is getting better weekly but I still
suck compared to the vets but I'm finishing the workouts.
I'm getting stronger and have more energy throughout the
day.
Besides results from the gym I'm thankful I have my family,
a great gym community who is very supportive, I'm healthy
and I'm learning again about commitment. Never forget that
even in the situation you're in, you are still truly blessed. It
could always be worse.
I so look forward to the day I can enjoy cake and cookies
again! Soon, very soon! Be encouraged and stay
encouraged! It will get better.
