Well, I hate to feel disappointed, but I honestly am. Only lost 2 pounds over the course of the past two weeks. I've stuck to the plan, but there is no avoiding the feeling of frustration. However, I know & must acknowledge that two pounds down, is two pounds down; & furthermore, any pounds down is a win.

I have got to be resolute & confident that my journey started with awareness; will continue with being accepting of the give & take of this process; can only be finished by being tenacious; & being tenacious means I DO NOT QUIT!!! This climb is hard. This climb will make you doubt yourself. This climb will humble you. This climb will make you look in those mirrors, not only to see yourself, but your soul, your fortitude.

I see mine. He's standing there chisel in hand. He's pointing at me. He's screaming at me. "We are forging a New Jon. This Jon is the Jon you seek to be. The road is tough & the way is challenging. You accepted this knowing all theses things. You have walked on new ground & slayed many demons. Turning back is not an option. Now be thankful for what the work has earned you, put your head down, & get back to work. Pick up your hammer, we are chiseling out of this Old Jon shell. New Jon is not a week end project. New Jon is a life change, a new way to live."

I heard him. Hope you can hear yours too. Now let's get back to climbing. See you on the mountain.
