Repetition, Consistency...Mojo

If I do something right and keep repeating that something eventually a new GOOD habit will be created, RIGHT? This is what I keep telling myself. This is what I keep tormenting myself with.... I ran Tuesday. It was hard, but it felt good. I NEED to do it again, and again and again... I know that eventually it will get easier and maybe I may one day just do it with out thinking. That is the goal... OR is the goal just reaching day 2 and then 3 and then 4???

I am not consistant and it kills me. I want to be healthy. I want to be at a good weight for my body type. I can have good days. I can have great days where I eat healthy sized portions of good for you food. AND THEN I have days where I just don't pay attention. I eat whatever is available in whatever amount I see fit. I don't think about whether I am full or not, I don't think about nutritional content or if I've had all of my fiber. I just eat. I don't think and then later I get pissed at my self for not thinking.

Two of my favorite bloggers - PastaQueen and DietGirl are where I want to be. They have worked hard to create the good habits. They consistently eat well. They are now at healthy weights AND they are not deprived or abnormal in their mannerisms. WHAT HAVE THEY GOT THAT I DON'T? What do I need in my life to give me the MOJO to plan and act in a way that will get me where I want to go??
