Twenties, thirties, and what's to come.

"I'm still in my prime..."  I like to think that our state of mind is what determines the state of our health.  While this may somewhat be true, there are steps that we need to take to help make that statement true.  The ability to fool our neighbors or coworkers into thinking that we are just "obese" or "lazy" is our ultimate goal. To mask the symptoms so well that we continually hear "you don't look sick" when the bad days come. Sometimes obesity isn't due to enjoying the delicious food choices that we are limited to. Most of the time, obesity is just one of the many side effects we try to manage. Instead of thinking of that our "prime" is dead and gone, maybe it is best to to stay that we reach our prime in stages. Yes, I know my twenties are gone, but the fact that I can still fool people into thinking that I AM twenty something has to count right?! Reminding ourselves that the daily struggles are real, but the breath in our bodies means that we are still able to reach our next goal. Goals, primes, weight, all things that may cause some pressure if they aren't met. But that's the great thing about setting your own goals, you have the ability to take it just one day at a time!
