Here we go again!


This blog is starting to look like my diaries.  I start them with great intentions, and they get forgotten. Fragmented pieces of my life.  Tiny holes in the walls I've built to peak in.

Around mid June or so, I decided I couldn't keep doing nothing about my physical health (again).  I was at the heaviest I ever was (194lbs) weighing in as much as I did when I was pregnant. Completely unacceptable!  The guy I was head over heels about dumped me and I was feeling lousy. So I started walking in my beautiful country neighborhood.  Only to discover I had EXCRUCIATING pain in my calves if I walked too fast.

Fast forward a few weeks and I've joined Planet Fitness again, I'm consistently hitting at least 10K steps a day (I hit 20k yesterday!) and I've started a Biggest Loser challenge at work.  I'm currently in 3rd.  I've also lost very little weight (currently coasting at 187).  But I feel better.  And I feel like my clothes are just a tiny bit more comfortable.  My goals are to lose all I want to lose by August 1, 2017.  That gives me one year to lose 45 lbs.  A very reasonable and achievable goal.  I pray I don't get lazy again.  I pray that if I meet someone, that I don't stray from better myself by being lost in a new relationship.  I pray I get my glorious booty back! hahaha!

So here is a couple photos of me from yesterday (excuse the poor lighting and dirty mirror).  I am hoping the visual reminders will help me stay on track and help me see the progress maybe I don't feel.
