Ok so here's the deal...
I am turning 30 this year
That's right
the BIG 3-0
I have heard that the 30's are your Best years
and I intend to have a blast and ride this roller coaster of Fun!!!
But I have a problem
I need to lose weight
and not in that "I weigh 100 pounds and wear size 2" fishing for compliments way.
I am dead serious, my belly jiggles when I walk.
Being a working Mom of 2 leaves little time for myself
And I will be the first to tell you that at the end of the day, the last thing I Want to do is exercise.
So.....
Here I am
An Obese-A-Tron
I lose my breath walking upstairs
I have little to no energy and find myself exhausted doing little tasks
my clothes don't fit
looking at pictures disgusts me
I despise clothes shopping for myself
And the list could go on and on....
Now that the kids are slightly older and sleep through the night, I have no excuse
And I am done making excuses.
I am ready for this change!
I am excited for this change!
I have decided to not make any number goals
My b-day is in May...end of May
And my goal is to feel GOOD!
I am not putting a number expectation or an inch mark because I feel that
would be setting myself up for failure.
So my goal is to celebrate my big day feeling good...feeling energetic...and feeling Alive!
Now this is where I NEED YOU!
I need encouragement
I need support
I need a shoulder to cry on
I need someone to tell me that I WANT to do this, that I chose to make this commitment
I need someone that is going through what I am going through
I need Help.
I will be recording everything in My Fitness Pal (come join me there)
I have downloaded the Couch to 5K app and will be using that as a guide for exercise
I will post about my my successes and failures every Sunday and encourage you to also share your updates as well.
For added incentive, the hubs and I have decided to put 50cents at the end of the day for meeting my calorie intake goal. And on May 29th, I will be able to use all that money and reward myself with anything I want :)
