Here goes my first attempt as a blogger. Not really sure where this will go but I am hoping that it is a rewarding journey. I am on my quest to lose weight once and for all. I have been heavy as long as I can remember- and dieting as long as I can remember. There is something in me though that I think is finally ready to make the change to a healthy lifestyle forever. I can't pinpoint it but it's there. Maybe it's the fact that I WILL have diabetes if I don't change. Maybe it's the fact that I am not a good model of health for my son. Maybe I would like to have more fun shopping for clothes. Maybe it's all of them and more.
I watch the Biggest Loser every week. And these people are always crying. I don't have any deep dark secrets as to why I am overweight. I have a great life- family, friends, job- all good! But what is out of balance? I am trying to figure that out.
In the meantime- I workout at curves 3-4 times a week and I am now training to run a 5K in June. I am actually excited about a 5K- that is new :) I am running with kids and teachers from school and we did 1.5 miles on Monday. I was pretty amazed that we did that much. I just need to double that and boom! 5K!
Until tomorrow.....
I am so impressed you are training for a 5K! And that you started a blog. Talk about accountability. Can't wait to jump on the bandwagon as soon as this baby gets here! Love you!!
