change is scary. It’s so hard to not be able to do what you want! I think I’m on the road, but today I feel like I’m on the couch. Back to the road. right now!

No couch or road…I’m so far off the path I need a GPS to find my way back!

Great post. I see the most results when I force myself to step out of my comfort zone. Thanks for the reminder.

I think it’s so easy to get stuck in our comfort zone in all areas of our life. I think moving outside our comfort zone involves change & the unknown and that’s scary. Stepping outside of our comfort zone also often means acknowledging that what we had told ourselves wasn’t possible for so long, is actually possible. We often have to admit that we were wrong. And that’s hard to do but so important. And I think the key is to start slowly and take it one step at a time. It’s all about moving in the right direction…

I really try to move out of my comfort zone a lot. I cannot remember where I read this, but the gist was that the only way to progress was to be a little uncomfortable every day. I liked that and try to apply it to my life.

Great Frito post! I wrote this there: Diane, you know me, I follow all of what you said above! I plan, plan, plan & know what I do & do not want to indulge in. I keep up the good eating all thru the holidays but choose what is most important to me when I splurge. I also do not let my exercise program lag. I find a way to do it no matter what! Makes it so easy to enjoy the holidays in all ways! And it is about family & friends, not just food!

Such a great post. I guess I was tired of being me when I finally pushed out of the comfort zone. BUT like you said Diane, it is a mixture of things like lack of self confidence which is part of a lot of overweight people’s problems & I had fear of failure as well.

Now I can push myself big time in the gym BUT I still have that fear outside of gym stuff. I need to find how to get out of the comfort zone there.

Diane, always great posts!!! Going to read your Frito post now!

Oh, you really touched a nerve when you wrote about not getting started because “no one expected much of the fat Diane”. I think that’s part of my problem – if I accomplish this goal then bigger and better things will be expected of me…and I’ve already lived so beneath my potential that it feels like a very overwhelming task. But of course my comfort zone has gotten me nowhere and so I figure up is the only way out. Great post!
