First Day of the Rest of my Life

My whole life I've been over weight, except for a short period in highschool when I was playing water polo 24/7. I've always been one to eat because it tastes good, or because I was bored and couldn't think of anything better than grabbing a snack. After gaining more weight than I'd like to admit to during my pregnancy, I am at an all time low mentally, and literally as high (weight wise) as I've ever been. I have a hard time waking up some days because I'm so tired, which I would attribute to staying up late because I don't wear my body out during the day. I over eat, and don't always make healthy choices. I've done Weight Watcher's but haven't been able to pay for it recently. Once I stopped the weight flew right back on. I decided last night after an emotional breakdown the previous night, that I needed to make a change in my life. I needed to eat healthier and less, exercise much more, and then maybe I would not only feel better about myself, but I would be teaching my daughter the same healthy habits.

This blog is to hold me accountable, track my journey to health, and to help me see improvements within myself. Not only physicaly, but also mentally. I hope that someone sees this blog and finds inspiration from it, to take the first step to being healthy and finding a way to love themselves more fully. 

On this day I:
Measure: 5'9
Weigh: 218.6 lbs
Have Lost: 0lbs
Need to lose (to be a healthy weight for my gender and height): 49.6 lbs
BMI: 32.3 (obese)
Feel: excited to start this new chapter in my life.

Plan of Atack 

Day 1- DONE!


Today I have accomplished my goals of eating less, healthier, and exercising. And there's nothing more that I can do. One day at a time is the only way to accomplish anything.
