Not giving up

My body is a funny thing. It does what it wants when it wants with no good reason. It really tends to take a turn on me whenever I decide that I want to do something good for my health or when I have a goal that I want to reach as far as physically. Well this time was no different. The day after I started this blog and had made the decision to do this marathon and start exercising I got sick. My stomach would not hold anything in it. I thought that yesterday I was fine, which meant that I could start working on a plan for starting to work out, and wouldn't you know it....there goes my stomach again. It's times like these that I usually just give up on a goal. I just throw my hands up in the air and decide that my body will control the way I do things. But not this time. I can't let it. My body may be angry with me for moving around more than usual and getting up earlier than usual, but its gonna have to get used it. I am tired of being tired all the time because of what I eat and lack of restful sleep because I don't do anything all day. They say that it takes a strong mind to overcome some illnesses. I think it just might take my mind being stronger than my stomach this time. Because allowing my stomach issues to rule my life has only made me heavier and more ill. And being ill is not going to get me to a half-marathon. So I will begin to plan my work-out and eating schedule to reach my goal. Nothing is going to stop me this time.
