Weight For A Goal

For the longest time as long I can recall I used to weight 170 lbs and then one day something hit me out of left field, gained an extra 10. It had seemed that being very close to a community canteen while volunteering was too much of a 'good thing' for those who craved for a chance something of a meal. A disciplined mind to stop didn't exisit.

At the time being, it seemed this was to be my own fate through karma being prisoner of this gained weight. Only time would allow me to choose a reasonable goal soon afterwards my own volunteering days, either accept this or change. Within the wake of the American presidential campaigns the word 'change' inspired my heart to make a change for the better, always for the better. My mind was made up and set on this one goal.

I was going to make a change in my life, each and every day. First was going to be weight loss. Through meditation I've decided to think 'being full' was not going to be an option. Somewhere in the void of my mind was this student that got a A+ in health of who used to be me. He woke up and had me shave and focused on being healthy.

This meant very little reason to snack on junk food, going outside and start riding my bike more often. Within less than a month I started consuming water and juice whenever I could. Eventually I woke one morning and emerged was this person that lost all the weight that he gained.

First thought was go to the closet and find my old jeans which have been collecting dust for the longest time. All of them fit me like a glove. My main goal was achieved through determination and I knew that I need to maintain this goal for the rest of my life.

Now it has been part of my daily routine whenever I have free time. Karma have been kind enough for me to start over as if I hit the restart button and start anew. Soon I will be shopping for new belts and pants for work. Life is good only if you make it possible to make it so and change it always for the better.
