I am three days into DietBet.  I have lost 3 pounds.  I'm struggling today.  Not with the food... I have eaten 1200-1400 calories each day.  Eating Paleo for the first time ever.  It feels nutritious.  I like it.  It's easier than I thought it would be.  Although I miss Triscuits.  LOL!  

I think my struggle today is two-fold: 1. Head congestion. 2. Fear of failing.  

This time HAS to be different.  It MUST be a lifestyle change.  It MUST have EVERYTHING to do with me moving forward and NOTHING to do with my hurts from the past.  As I sat down to write this... my very first blog... I was reminded of this Bible verse: Brethren, I count myself not to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before."  Philippians 3:13

I read this quote today: "I've learned that fear limits you and your vision, it serves as blinders to what may be just a few steps down the road for you."   I'm stepping onward.  Come with me.
