Pay Me Now Or Pay Me Later

This is a concept that we learned when we lived and worked at the Children’s home. They teach it to you as part of your training. Basically they are saying that you need to deal with the issues up front and right away. I need this advice when dealing with my kids. It’s easy to let them get away with something for a few times because I am too tired or don’t want to discipline them. Its not fun! But I know if I don’t do it I will have to pay for it later! It’s the same way with health. People will say it cost to much to eat healthy. But I know how expensive the doctors bills are and overnight stays in the hospitals are. If I choose to pay for the food now, I will save later in doctors bills! Make since right? I also thought about the fact that if you eat healthy, you have to eat less, but you have more choices in clothing options! If you have more food choices and eat more, you have less clothing options! Yet still I struggle! I tried a diet patch this week, but didn’t like it. It burned and made my skin itch. I did okay for 3 days but today it made me sick to my stomach to wear. I never did feel differently about my food intake. The patches were a free two week trial, so it’s not like I paid a large amount of money for them, and I’ve been waiting for 3 years to try them! So I’m glad they finally offered them for free, but sad that they are not for me. I know how to make my body lose weight. Just have to get my mind and mouth on board with my heart and mind!
