The Battle of a Lifetime

What I have Allowed My Body to Become is Embarrassing

I have reached an all-time high

One might imagine that I have a lifetime of achievements. After decades of working and striving I find my self at a new plateau, personally, spiritually, career and in relationships. What more do I want?

I desire to eliminate one of those all-time highs.

With a half century of life on this planet, I desire to take control of my health and body shape. For some, there is one wake up call. There may be one event — maybe a comment from a relative or small child. I have heard testimonials from some that the one time they were classified as the “O” word (obese) by their doctor. For others, it is an embarrassing event at an amusement park when they are denied access to a ride.

Me? Well, I am that frog in the pot of water. You’ve heard the story. Right?

The water is heated so gradually that the frog does not realize they are being boiled alive until it is too late. That is me.

Life and Death Battle

As I am ‘woke’ to the damage done to my body, I lean into this major battle that is put before me. I yearn for the quality of life that I have enjoyed in the past.
