Before After

Starting Over Again

I know I haven't written since the beginning of the month. I have thought about writing but never got around to it. I've been thinking about my weight, and I have decided to essentially start over again. Like a clean slate of sorts. My sister and I have been talking about going on a diet and exercising  more on and off the past week. We've decided that enough is enough!

Grant it, our weight loss goals are very different. She probably wants to lose 15-20 lbs while I want to lose over 100. All I know is we both want to change our eating habits and eat much healthier than we have been. We know what we want, and we are finally ready to begin a new chapter in our lives where weight loss is the end result.

My new weight loss goal is to try and lose 40 lbs by the time my birthday comes along. My original birthday goal seems too much to ask of myself now due to the time that has passed when I first made that goal. I need to be realistic now. I'm not going to overexert myself or my body. I have to take it day by day, pound by pound, and hope for the best! :0)

Wish me luck! (once again lol)

How far away?

How long til your birthday?  Be sure to set a reasonable goal of 1-2 lbs a week at the most.  Journal (blog here - hint, hint), watch your food selections and portion sizes, drink water, exercise.  Wahlah!

You can do it!!

hey!

I'm so glad you're back. xo

Clean slates are a great idea, no point beating yourself up. Time to start as of today. You can do it, M. *hugs*

Welcome!

I am starting over too! I have been MIA for a couple of months.  We can struggle together.

Hi stranger!!

I am so glad to see you back. I have missed you!! I wish you much success! I know you can do it!
