Welcome Back My Friends To The Show That Never Ends
by Bill Ivory Larson on Dec.06, 2009, under My Daily Weight Loss Blog
My friends, good morning. I am just showered from a wonderful forty-minute workout in the gym and I’m sitting at my computer ready to begin today.
What is cool to me is how many of you guys out there have said “hello” to me on my new Facebook page, sent me a note to my e-mail address, etc. That is awesome, and also a powerful motivator for me and I thank you all so very much.
Losing weight is sometimes the easy part. Keeping it off is a struggle It is a constant thing we are doing, this weight loss journey. The part about losing and the part about keeping it off.
What continues to motivate me are my friends and loved ones and the new friends I am meet through the column and through this blog. You are all inspirations to me to continue the Battle of (what is now) the three-and-a-half. Yes, my battle to finally lose my grief weight is going very well thanks to my re-commitment to working out and eating better (i.e. laying off my personal crack of fried rice. Ice-cold Cokes are a slightly different story though).
It is the process that I will be doing for the rest of my life. It is the show that never ends. But the rewards are wonderful. Pants that always zip up. Clothes that fit better. Better health all the way around. A new outlook on life.
If that is a never ending show, it truly is the greatest show on earth.

Congrats. Good job! I know it’s so hard to stay committed and not give in when the days are long and stressful. You’re inspiring, not just to those on a weight loss journey but those working on other endeavors as well. I wish I was half as committed to my writing and photography as you are to weight loss. Keep up the good job !!!
