What am I writing today?

Weight this week: the same
Holiday gain now: the same

I have literally run out of excuses. I should be back on plan but I'm not. I should have lost my holiday gain but I have not. I should be a gorgeous size 12 but I am not! So many expectations so many disappointments.

However, it's not just my weight loss that's on hold. I feel like my whole life is. What am I waiting for? What do I want? If I'm waiting until I'm 10 stones I will have a long wait. But that's the point. Don't put your life on hold just waiting. Waiting until you are slim? Waiting until you win the lottery? Waiting until you get a better job? Or meet that perfect partner? Or the sun comes out? Stop waiting and start living. Don't wait another day.

For those that don't know what I do - I help people with cancer. Get benefits, employment advice, housing advice, general advice. And my clients die. Every week. They die. It's sad, it's life (so to speak). Last week she was a 36 year old single mother. I helped her and I'm proud that I could. But please learn from my words. Go out today and do something you love. Don't know what you love? Work it out, try a few things, push yourself out of your comfort zone - nothing will ever grow there! Take chances, take risks. Feel the adrenaline, feel alive. Life is for the living. We're dead a long time!

Oh my! Too dark?? It's just the way I'm feeling today. But I believe what I say even if I don't practice what I preach lol.

A ship is always safe at shore, but that's not what it was built for.
