Well as I mentioned in my previous blog I was going to get serious about losing weight and becoming healthier. I saw this picture below on my sisters facebook page and could not believe that this is me.
In this picture I weigh around 295lbs and can not believe it!!!
Week 1 - After experiencing depression from the above picture and watching the scales go wild when I went to the doctor. I vow to lose weight starting 3/8/10. So on Monday, March 8th, Jeff and I joined the gym and this is where my weight loss journey begins. Jeff and I have been making better food choices, drinking water only, and going to the gym everyday. I did cardio workout for 20 minutes on Tuesday and by that Friday I was already up to 1 hour of cardio. I plan on increasing time and intensity everyday. I have felt so much better since I started eating better and working out. I believe this healthy change will help me in every part of my life. I want to be the mom that not only watches my child play but is right up there with her playing. I have set myself small goals. My first goal is to lose 10lbs to 285lbs. I have decided to reward myself with a new haircut after losing my first 10lbs. I really hate getting on the scales but I decided to get on the scales this evening (1 week) and I am so happy that I have lost 5lbs and now weight 290lbs and feeling so much better. I will try to post every week and when I reach my goals, so please follow me in the journey and be sure to leave me your comments.
