Weekend Freewrite - Mar 2 2019 - Single Prompt Option Beacon
I want to be a beacon to lead people to change. This is my goal in weight loss coaching. But instead I am a shining example to envy. People tell me ALL THE TIME how inspired they are by my story.
Inspired to do what?
Nothing, most of the time.
I talked to someone today about the fear of change and how it paralyses us. Over and over again I see it. The feeling is:
I cannot take the big steps, so I will not do anything.
I was there.
I was there for most of my life.
I never thought I could ever, or would ever, lose weight and get healthy.
And then.
All of the sudden I did.
It only took eight months to lose 80 pounds after the first 45 came off slowly.
I tell people:
- Eat less crap
- Eat more nutrition
- Get more rest
- Exercise 10 minutes a day every day.
Just take those small steps to get started and I will help you continue.
But it is not good enough.
They say, "You look amazing in your before and after photos."
But they do not want to do what I did. They want to go keto, vegan. They want to intermittently fast or get surgery.
Anything is better than taking the bull by the horns and slowly working to improve.
And even if they do like my ideas, they are doing it tomorrow and they will get back to me.
My post is for the #freewrite single prompt weekend challenge by @mariannewest. Freewrite is a great way to post on steemit when you do not think you have the time, or talent, or anything to say. It’s a great way to start regular posting on steemit. I know you can do this too! Here is Marianne’s freewrite prompt post for today. Give it a try and surprise yourself.

Statistics say that only 5% of people with health resolutions for the New Year will still be on track after Super Bowl Sunday. Is your fitness equipment still out handy, and are you still on a "diet?" Soon we will be in Bathing Suit Season. Are you ready?
I lost "Half My Size" eight years ago by using natural methods. I started on December 5th and did not give up. You can do it too!

So frustrating, isn't it! That is why I try really hard and sit on my hands and wait for people to ask for my opinion... Have seen too often that it doesn't matter what you say - if people aren't ready, they are not going to do anything...
And even if they DO ask, they are still not going to try. At least posting here I get some response. I will just keep on my path and hope for the best. I need to post anyway :)
Amazing story! People need to see that it’s possible from someone whos lost the weight
Thank you very much. This is exactly my point. I am no one special, I took steps anyone can take. I am glad to be a role model, but I want to be one of many - not one of few.
Thank you alot for trying the site. it is shaping up gradually. soon everyone can have spaces e.g you can visit say https://ulogs.org/created/ulog-snookmademedoit etc but best on desktop for now.
You can also explore steemgigs.org, that will be announced for use in rhe coming days. it is very hard but we wi get somewhere.
Please permit a little side-note:
Thank you for attempting to ulog today and for sticking around with us, whether bulls or bears.
We will soon resume full-blown activities especially as ulogs.org begin to take full shape and with the birth of the teardrops SMT. There will be ulog-cats and all. ulog-subtags to bear forth ulog-communities.
Thank you so much for this comment and your support on my post. I will absolutely fill out the form. I love ulogs and the idea of I and plan to participate as best I can. I'm glad to have the link, and I will get on it!
Thank you alot. Alot of beautiful things will happen there. It isn't fully understood yet. I have been looking to explain it with a 50 pages paper. I wrote 47 pages of these paper since Nov last year but i have been waiting for certain tasks to be done before i complete the paper which never happened cos of many issues and development has been slow. A beautiful side to it is ulog-subtags and the ulog-communities these will born. It is gradually coming forth. You can see a slight example on https://ulogs.org/created/ulog-snookmademedoit, basically, every certified ulogger will be owners and not only on ulogs.org but on all three interfaces steemgigs.org and macrohard etc
Overall, thank you and i am grateful. Worse things have happened since my last post on facebook asking help. but now i am back to mute state and taking care of matters on my own. If i come out successful, perhaps there will be more breakthrough for us all.
I have great faith in you and know success will come. I am in such a juggling act here, but now I am committed to ulogging at least a few times a week. This is one of the best initiatives to help those of us who are small. You are always in my prayers and mute or not - I hear you :)
Not easy... Most of the times many would say they wanna change, but then when it comes to the "hard work" part, a lot won't have the persistent to follow through.
Thank you for freewriting with us! Here's the prompt:- Day 499: 5 Minute Freewrite: Sunday - Prompt: meat and gravy.
Thanks again! With love and hugs.
