Patience is the Potion

Patience is the one of the most important lessons I have learned since july 2005. There are all these programs out there that promise 90 day results or 60 day results. I came to the realization I am not a 60 or 90 day kind of guy. When a person has in excess of 100lbs to lose that cancels all bets on 60 or 90 day transformations.
I have learned to understand that my body does not respond as quickly as a younger persons. I have come to accept that. In real terms for myself to see major changes I think a year ahead. That is something a lot of people are lacking in, They want results now and it dont happen overnite, it is a process of change. If People will change their mindset to healthy food and portion control instead of diet pill, or gastric bypass or some other silly soup diet. Great changes can and will come about when you take the first step and Eat that first healthy meal or Take that first walk.

Who can make us do the right thing, is it a nagging wife , a stern demanding husband , your kids , friends, your Doctor, hmmmm ........In my case and every body else that has this decision to make, all will tell you THEY finally decided themselves. No amount of browbeating or tough love will make an individual decide to make a lifestyle change, It is a personal decision that you can only hope and pray they will make in time for themselves. Patience theres that word again, be patient with your loved ones that arent on the same page you are. We all come to make decisions concerning our health in our own good time, and if we dont make that decision in time, its all on us, NO BLAME. All the info and statisitics are out there for each and everyone of us to see.

So be patient and hope your spouse , daughter , son , or parent will come to their realization , and Start their own healthy lifestyle.
cya soon
