Sugar Detox - Day 5

Today I ran for 22 minutes straight.  While I was running, I was thinking about how I could possibly be embarking on a huge, transformational, possibly even inspirational, life change.  At first I was thinking I could be at a crossroads, but that implies just one big decision.  This is more like an interstate highway.  I'm moving.  I can't stop and stay on the highway - if you stop, you have to get off an exit.  I keep passing exits, like Dairy Queen, McDonalds, "I'm too tired", "This is too hard".  I have to continually choose whether I want to stay on the highway to better health or get off an exit.  Sometimes I feel like it is inevitable that I will be even more overweight as I get older, especially if I end up having more kids, but I'm realizing that I can choose my own destiny.  I can be at a healthy weight, have more energy, be active - if I want to.  I can also give up at any point.  It's my choice.  For today, I choose to keep moving.
