I never thought I would hit the 200 mark, and I flipped. NO WAY. I want to climb back onto the boat and take control! I'm steering it now. It's time. So, I have made some goals and I HAVE to stick to them. I've said this before and of course I've failed. But I'm sick of failing. I'm sick of the up and down. And I'm sick of hiding, being embarrassed about my body. I want to be healthy, strong, and a good weight. I couldn't care less if I'm super skinny, I just want to feel and look the best that I can. And the only person that is going to help me do that is me...AND all of you! That's why I'm posting this on here. I've never really talked much about these kinds of things before because I've been so self conscious. But I'm done with that. I need to put this out there so that I can have some accountability and motivation to keep going and become the person that I want to be! I have set some goals and I'm going to try my best to post once a week about how I'm doing. Comments, advice, and encouragement are welcome! Please help me on my journey. My first goal is to start slow. I'm going to exercise at least 3 times a week for a minimum of 20 minutes. I'll increase this as I go, but this is how I need to start, otherwise I overwhelm myself and just quit altogether. This past week I ran on Thursday and Friday for 20 minutes each, and then on Saturday I spend about 5 hours walking/running all over Wheeler Farm giving tours! :-) My second goal is to count my calories each day and record them in a journal so that I can keep tabs on what I'm eating and start paying attention more so that I can keep it under control! I haven't been doing too terrible at that, but I know there are some days that I could do MUCH better. I'm so excited to start making changes. Wish me luck! I'm DETERMINED and happy.
