It's 5:00 in the morning when the alarm (鬧鐘) rings in my ears. I roll out of bed and walk
blindly through the dark into the bathroom. I turn on the light and put on my glasses. The house
is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully. Usually I go for
a long run, but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD,Insanity.Sweat pours down my face
and into my eyes. My heart races as I force my body to finish each movement. As I near the
end of the exercise,I feel extremely tired, but a smile is on my face. It's not a smile because the
DVD is over, but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.
Some people enjoy shopping, smoking, food, work, or even chocolate. But I need exercise
to get through each day. Some shake heads when they see me run through the town. Others
get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother's chocolate cake. They raise
their eyebrows, surprised by my "no thank you," or by my choice to have a salad. Over the
years, I have learned it's okay to just say "no." I shouldn't feel sorry for refusing food that I
don't want to eat.
So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5:00 a.m.?What gives me the reason to just say
no to ice cream? Commitment. A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily
anxiety,increases selfconfidence and energy,extends life and above all improves my body shape.
This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my
favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right.It's through commitment and sweat that I can make a
difference within myself inside and out.
