Ok so here goes. Day one of my new lifestyle. Oh how many times have I started down this path only to get lost along the way. Distracted by aromas of fire grilled whoppers or huge helpings of mashed potato goodness.
Basically the point of this is to start helping me track my bad habits and to get healthy. Real deal, no sugar coating and sprinkles (yum!). When I screw up, I write it. When I succeed, I write it.
Right now I am a skinny, healthy, sexy 27 year old goddess stuck in a 200 lb, short, pudgy body. It's going to take many trials and tribulations to rescue me... but I'm up for it. It can't be worse than being exhausted at 7pm because I'm overweight and completely out of energy.
Signed up for Weight Watchers Online today for 3 months. Started a support group on FB. Completely stoked about the amount of friends that have already shown interest. Bascially what it is, is a page where we can track our success, encourage our friends to make positive healthy choices and have someone else there to bitch slap us when we are about to give in to temptation (which will then of course turn into self loathing after the initial euphoria from eating that carton of Ben and Jerry's Phish Food icecream). I've asked everyone to set a REALISTIC goal for themselves for this month. Mine is to lose 20 lbs and to have more energy.
So here's to making healthy choices because I care about myself so I have to care about my body and what I am putting into it. God give me strength because sometimes I find myself trying to persuade myself that a large fry from Mickey D's is toally good for me because potatoes are veggies and ketchup is from tomatoes. *Sigh
Just got to stick with this. work on the will power. The first day of dieting is always soooo easy cuz you are pumped. Have to remember this feeling every day.
Go baby go!! You can do it, and though I am ohhh 2 hours away we can support each other!! Very proud of you :) I'd take any weight loss. Great idea with the blog and FB site!!
