Week 68 06/26/2008
Jenny 500
I love Tom, he is always so supportive of my weight loss journey no matter what stage I am in and no matter how I feel even if I get down on myself sometimes. Last week, during one of those times when I was down on myself, he said “Val, you think the winner of the Indy 500 is ahead every single lap? That’s 250 miles — some of them good, some not so good - but it’s that last lap that brings it home.”
He’s full of non-food analogies that really help put perspective on this whole journey for me. Now, obviously there is no “last lap” on Jenny — this is about changing your LIFE — but he’s right about forgiving yourself for a few sluggish laps, or in my case, revisiting some old habits.
So I’m re-revved up, thanks to Tom and Kathy. My very own Jenny Pit crew.
