Why Are You Killing Yourself?

I read this somewhere and thought it should be shared here

Why Are You Killing Yourself?
Could you please consider something very personal and important today?

Have you ever realized that overeating and being inactive, and allowing yourself to have a weight problem is, in essence, slow suicide?

Every bite you take of high fat, or carbohydrate-heavy unhealthy food is doing damage to yourself. Every time you overeat and stuff yourself, despite the momentary pleasure, you are slowly taking years off of your life. Each day you go without being active or exercising is an example of your continued self-mistreatment.

But don’t waste time blaming yourself. There must be psychic pain, or an old trauma, or residual self-hatred or pain that causes you to do these things. The important thing to realize is: You are worth protecting and nourishing.

Think about these things next time. It’s within your power (with God’s help) to make different, healthier choices.

I cut and pasted and printed this. I feel like it was my life and have been on the right path for the last 6 months. My quality of life is so much better. I feel so much better. I have more confidence in myself. I realized that it is something I can control. It is up to me. I cannot depend on anyone else to do this for me. I am worth it!!! This is refridgerator worthy!
