I went out tonight. Not a surprise since for the past few months I have been going out every weekend. I came home, washed my face, brushed my teeth and changed. As I was changing I was obligated to look at myself. I have a gut. My stomach was once flat and now sticks out. Excessive food and alcohol the cause, myself to blame. I am disgusted. I used to be a runner. Dedicated. I would run DAILY through wind, rain or snow. I use to be committed to being healthy and I felt great.
What did I eat today? Chinese food and hot wings. I must have had three sodas, smoked hookah and had a margarita.
Where did the girl that use to treat her body like a temple go? I lost all respect for my body leaving it gasping for air after running up a single flight of stairs. I really need to stop. I have done this before and I can do it again. I am committed to living a healthier lifestyle. I will commit to it without fear. I will not hold back. I will have a flat stomach again. I will strengthen my core, tone my legs and arms. I will not smoke or binge drink. I will cleanse my body physically and mentally. I will achieve the goals I set myself. I will learn from my mistakes this time...

That sounds very interesting. I dabbled in yoga briefly but not long enough to truely understand it, I dont believe.
