So last night's Alice Cooper & Motley Crüe concert was epic but I've just gotta share something that Nikki Sixx said. He told us the story of how Motley Crüe was born. He began by saying that nothing happens because of luck or magic or any other reason. It happens because YOU make a decision. I don't know if he knew how true those words are for every aspect of your life but they are. Weight loss, my friends, is not luck or magic.
You have to make that decision to put one foot in front of the other. You have to make that decision to not eat that candy bar or whatever your kryptonite is. You have to make that conscience decision to make your life better whether it's weight loss, career, relationships, etc.
There is no magic.
On July 6, 2010 I made that decision to lose weight. I didn't use pills, shakes or any of those other gimmicks out there. I've stumbled along the way but because of that conscience decision I've went from a size 32 to a 14 in jeans. I've went from a 4x to an L in shirts. (The girls aren't shrinking)
I'm not even close to my goal yet but I'll get there. Slow and steady win the race.
So in closing, I just want to say that when you're not losing the weight but the person you're watching lose weight is, don't think that they're lucky. I'm willing to bet you that somewhere along the way they made that decision to make things happen.
You continue to inspire me!
