Hello out there! I've wanted to start a blog for awhile now, I just didn't know what to blog about. There's not a whole lot to my life right now except work and kids. Last October, I started a journey with my husband to lose weight. We want to get healthy and live long happy lives with our children. It was going great! He lost 20 lbs and I lost 18. Over the winter, we kinda lost our way. I since have put back on about 5 1/2 lbs and my husband won't even step on the scale (but I think he's only gained back about 7 lbs).
So, this blog is me getting back on track. Keeping a daily food/exercise/overall look at life in order to lose more weight and keep it off. This is more than counting calories, working out with the Wii, more than talking about health. It's a visible, public reminder; it is a living testament to myself and my family that with hard work, determination and support, I can undo the years of overeating, eating my emotions, not wanting to get up and get out, not seeing myself for who I am and who God wants me to be.
So now what? I guess it starts here and it starts now. Better eating. Exercising. Holding myself accountable daily for what I do with my body-my decisions. In the weeks to come, expect to read calorie counts, daily menus, exercise logs, and probably some gripping and groaning too. But, I know that I CAN reach my goal-20 less lbs on this body by the end of August. I hope some people come along for the ride too! Afterall, I can't wait to share what life is like, when the weight is over!
