Spirituality, will power, exercise

On this day, Nov. 1, 2006, I can tell you what is working for me now regarding losing weight. If I had written this story a year ago, I couldn’t tell you.

My spirituality is helping me today to finally eat healthy. You have to have strong will power, and you must exercise also. I’ve been overweight for many years. There have been weight losses and weight gains, which is not good for anyone. Each person goes through something different when trying to lose weight. I’ve arrived; I’m finally doing it.

My 7-year-old daughter and I walk every day. She’s overweight also, but she tells me, “Mama, I’m ready to lose weight.” I’m writing this story hoping that it will encourage someone or some family to begin to eat healthier and exercise. It’s never too late to get started.
