2016 Update - it's been way too long!!! Two years and still pretty much at the same size I was when I last did a post. However, I have been working on eating healthy, exercising (not as much).
I have decided to start blogging again to hold myself accountable. Not even sure anyone will read this.
Single Mom of one, working from time to time - okay, working fulltime and wishing I had already won the lottery!! In the back of my mind I have always wanted to be a stay-at-home Mom, but that's not something that I see happening my future anytime soon
Update - I am now in a size 18 or even 1X, so I am working on losing. I have a goal of 10 pounds each month for one year. Workout 49 minutes a day for 365 days - yes, I am entering my 49th year of life and have decided that doing 49 minutes of exercise a day for 365 days will be life changing for me!! Mentally, spiritually and physically!!
This blog is about ME - going for a new size. I am currently a size 22, or depends on the day it could be a Woman's size 24 (WOW - did I just type that??? - seeing it in print hurts a bit). I have been struggling with my weight loss for a few years now. I don't have the daily dedication and I really do need to make it a DAILY dedication. It is not a "diet" or "weight loss" program - this is a Lifestyle!!!! When it is a lifestyle then it becomes second nature. We get up everyday, go pee, take a shower, make ourselves look presentable to go to work or head out the door - why can't I make exercise part of my daily routine. If I am exercising, then those sizes in the closet with the two digits in them would be a thing of the past.
Okay - Okay - I am not saying that I am looking for a single digit new size, but it would be nice to actually see that. Heck, even having a 1 at the front of a two digit clothes size would be something I have not seen since I was in high school, or was that middle school - but, that was a really, really, really long time ago.
Now going for My New Size is not going to be easy. I can't expect to have this journey be a piece of cake (NO - NO - no eating cake!!!) I have to work hard. I plan to work hard. I am not going to dive into the deep end of the pool, for now I am going to start in the shallow end - and for sure can't have just my toe in the water to see if its cold. Life is cold, as well as a pool in the middle of the winter that is not heated. Working on My New Size is going to be like that cold water - just jump right in and make it happen everyday.
