Before After

Fresh Start

a lot of people have been doing a fresh start on here and have been doing very well...,I think I'm going to jump on that bandwagon... I hope they don't mind.
 
So starting right now. I'm beginning. 
 
Hello I'm Julie - I live in Georgia and I'm so dang tired of being FAT!!!!
 
I'm recommitting to a healthy lifestyle of exercise, low fat high nutrition eating, and drinking lots of water. 
 
I just weighed and gasp I weight 244.4 pounds.. this is just about my highest ever.. I've been playing at this diet thing way too long.  The last time I was under 200 (my first goal) was 2002.  I was so active then and social and happy.
 
This month I commit to doing at least 45 minutes of sweaty cardio 5 days a week
80 oz of water every day
zero sodas
zero fast food
two days at the gym doing weight training and hills on the treadmill
and posting my progress or cry for help at least once a week
 
Wish me luck, pray for me, hold me too it... please email me if I drop off the face of the earth.. I need to lose this weight I need to be healthy.. I will be 48 in 8 weeks.. I would like to be in the 220s by then.  I don't want to stress about getting to the number I just want to be healthy and happy and lighter...
 
On a great note.. I just completed a 4 mile watp tape.. and feel great....

Welcome back and great job on doing that WATP video!
 
Have a great week!

Redo!

I love that post you just put up!  It does seem like everyone is starting over and it's great because we can all help each other stay on track.

I've been working on drinking more water and I noticed that I was instantly addicted to it when I started using Crystal Light.  It tastes so much better than it used to years ago. 
 
Then I also chew gum in between meals and focus on eating more of what Wieght Watchers calls "filling foods" like fruits/veggies, etc.  I eat a lot of air-popped popcorn and baked potatoes.  It helps a lot. :)
 
I hope you continue to do well and keep us posted!  Good luck!
