DNF, Did Not Finish

A friend of mine pointed out a license plate to me this weekend that had the letters DNF on it. He wanted me to know that those letters to a runner meant, “Did not finish” a race. Bob said that to a runner it was a black note on a their record. I could really relate to those letters with my weight-loss mission.

Once again I have let Old Man Winter take over my eating and workout habits. I use food to comfort my dislike of the cold weather and I let the frigid winds keep me inside and less active. But spring is just around the corner and it is time for me to get into action.

Yep, the calorie count is going to go down and the workouts need to heat up. I say every winter that I am not going to let it happen but once again it has. Bad Lisa!

I just packed a healthy lunch and dinner for myself. I just finished my hour-long workout. It’s Monday and I had to start my week off right.

I have had the finish line in my sights for over a year but I have yet to cross the 200-pound weight loss finish line. The time is now to put my feet in action and put my fork down so that I can make my dream of losing 200 pounds come true. I am not sure what I have been waiting for but now is the time to set my sights on my own trophy and finish what I set out to do.

I owe it to myself and so do you to be the healthiest we can be. Let’s get going!
