Time for a change!

I have been overweight my entire life. I am always hard on myself, but never am willing to make a change. I have to! There are so many things that I want to change about my body, life, self esteem and overall health. I want to give my amazing husband babies, and I want to be healthy enough to do that. It's the start of a new year, and we all know that we start out all gung-ho in the beginning of the year. We all feel likes its a new beginning given to us to change ourselves. But before we know it, a month has past and we have forgotten about our resolutions and are back in the same old rut. I do not want that to happen to me again! I want to change, not for a week, or two but forever. I WANT TO BE ADDICTED TO EXERCISE! I want to get to the point where exercising is a part of my life. I want to get to the point where if I miss a day, I feel guilty and grumpy. I need to commit to not just a resolution but a lifestyle change! I have made a goal for myself to lose 50 pounds by the end of the year. That is not my full goal, but I feel that is a very realistic goal to start with. I want to lose a total of 130 pounds all together, but that is my Long term goal. I will get there! Caleb(my husband) and I joined a gym that is only about 5 minutes away from our home, and we plan on going TOGETHER at least 3 times a week. We also plan to do yoga a few times a week as well. I am creating this blog to keep me accountable. I want this to be a place that I can come and spill my heart out and get support so I can keep moving forward with this goal and not forget about it and push it onto the back burner.
More post to come :)

  1. Girl you can do this!!!! Keep up your mind focus and the best way to express everything is in a journal or blog! If you can make it 21 days you are set. It takes a goal 21 days to turn into a habit. :)
