Happy New Years everyone! I know this is cliche, but my New Years resolution is to lose weight! WOOHOO!! This might be a battle, so that's why I am sharing it with y'all and hoping that y'all help me out! :)
All my life (well from what I can remember of) I have been overweight... and all of my life, I have listened to people (my family) tell me that I would be pretty if I was skinny. At first this was hurtful, then I just came to resent it. "I love myself! I don't care if I am fat or skinny... weight doesn't make me who I am.. so what does it matter!?!?" That's what I told myself everyday, and soon enough I didn't care if what I was eating was full of calories or not, if it was good I was eating it! I am happy being big... I joke around about it and fool around.. I'm really OK with me! I LOVE ME!!
Well, this has backfired! I am now the heaviest I have ever been and its taking a toll on me! I have tried many, many diets, and I have lost, but always have gained it back. I recently considered getting gastric bypass, BUT after watching my dad go through it and how it has effecting him, I have decided I do not want to go that route. SO, here I am doing it the old fashion way!
I would love to go onto the biggest loser, but since that isn't going to happen.. this is my biggest loser, and you followers are my Jillian! I am going to get on here at least 5 times a week, and blog what I eat, my exercise, and my loss! Since I am getting started I would love your feedback! What has worked for you, recipes, yummy healthy food, ect, ect!
SO, here we go! Thanks for helping! It really does mean a lot to me!! :) :)
Bella! I'm so proud of you starting this, and I'm going to invite myself to satellite join you! Can I be on your Biggest Loser team and be your Jillian/Bob (and you mine)? I can't promise to post a ton of times each week, but I will jump on here when I can (you're already bookmarked)! I have nothing but support for you, too, so if you need a distraction or a confidant--call me up/text me/tweet me/facebook me!
