To tell you the truth... There's a real chance that I've developed some health problems because of my weight. I don't want that to be the reason that I have diseases. If the weight comes off, and those issues are still there, then so be it. But I'm not going to let
One of my closest friends, Liz, is also blogging about her journey. And every time I read her blog I think, "I used to do that." So, why did I stop? Laziness.
So, here I go.. blogging about my journey to being healthy again. Because what do I have?
Hardwork. Dedication. Sass.
The goal is to be at a healthy weight. The goal is also to tell you all what's going on.. hopefully every day. This might get difficult with me working 2 jobs, but I'll make it work.
So.. here's my stats:
Starting Weight (today): 218.6 lbs
Current Weight: 218.6 lbs
Goal Weight: 145 lbs
Weight to lose: 73.6 lbs
This morning to work out, I went to kickboxing class at my church. Kicked my butt! To warm up we ran and did kicks and legs in between laps around the parking lot. Then we went upstairs and did the boxing. We also did sit ups with punches and snow angels (both of these are dreadful, but I still do them). Stretching.. and BOOM. workout done.
I'm hoping to get in a workout every day. Whether it's Zumba, kickboxing, running around my neighborhood, or lifting weights and doing ab exercises in my room. I can do this! :)
I'm with you. :-) I'll add another motivation for you. SOMEDAY (far, far away!) you will want to have babies. I struggled with my fertility for years because of my weight. It was a big factor.
ReplyDeleteI have lost the same 10 lbs. 10 times! It needs to stop. I am down 10 from Christmas but every year, I gain it back over summer time.
