Day 2,467 –The First Step and the Rest—

It is hard to admit that even after all my days of running and practicing good habits, I still have days when it is more difficult. Most of the time I don’t think about eating bad food or not being so active, but there are days I still do. There are days when I feel like acting out. When I have a sudden desire to act against my own self-interest. This is the thing about lifestyle change that nobody wants to talk about --what it is like after you have done it-- After you have hit your goal, what then? Is it easier for the rest of your life? In my experience life never does easy, it only does different. It would be nice if life ever gave us a break from continuing to challenge us, but it doesn’t.
