A few weeks ago I made myself a promise. I was never going to be 246 lbs. again. I sit here now at 233 lbs. My jeans are fitting better, I am sleeping better and I have more energy to play with my kids who are 3 1/2 and 8 months. It hasn't been the easiest but it's one of those things that is worth it. I haven't had a can of pop since Nov. 27th, the date of my first blog. I have been logging all of what I eat at loseit.com. A great way to manage what you eat. I have been drinking a LOT of water. My goal is to lose 10% of my body weight. I have a larger goal weight I would like to achieve. But I am not going there right now. My first goal is 24.6 lbs. 10% of 246 lbs., my highest weight. I have 11.6 more pounds to go to reach this goal.
The weight has FLOWN off so far but I have a feeling it is going to start coming off in a much healthier curve now. The past few days I have been 233. My goal is 2 lbs. a week. I didn't become 246 lbs. overnight so it isn't going to come off with a miracle pill or shake. I am not on a diet. I am eating healthy. Very healthy.
I am going to continue to log my foods for the day and try to keep drinking water like crazy. This is going to be a journey... Not an easy one, not a quick one. But one that is going to change my life and my families life. I don't want to be the mom with no energy, that doesn't fit in the rides at the amusement park or doesn't take the kids to the pool because she is ashamed at what she will look like in a swim suit.
I am starting new. One day at a time.
I will never be this weight again.
