My Weight Loss Journey!

I’ve decided that starting today (April 12, 2013) I am going to fully commit to losing weight and start my weight loss journey. There will be none of that lazy “I don’t feel like working out” talk or exercise here and there or today “I’ll skip on having some fruit”. If I continue on the way I have been so far NOTHING will change. I WILL LOSE THIS WEIGHT once and for all!! Lots of hard work and determination is a must to continue on this journey!

I realize that many women don’t like to talk about their weight. It’s a sore subject for them. I came to a realization that if you are trying to lose weight but don’t admit what your weight is and don’t have a goal set than your whole journey becomes pointless. I’m saying this because it’s true. I’ve been there. In the past I’ve tried to work out but I wasn’t ready to admit or tell anyone how much I weighed, I was embarrassed and I for sure didn’t have a goal set. I believe that if you are in that kind of mind thought then you really, deep inside weren’t ready to take on that journey. Well I am now and I’m telling the whole world about it.

I plan on updating weekly (Friday is my day) with a post consisting my weigh-ins, measurements and a picture so you can see my progress. (I will be using My Fitness Pal to keep track of everything). I’m super excited to lose these pounds but scared at the same time. It’s been ages since I’ve worked out so I know I’m going to be in for a long ride. But in the end it will all be worth it! Let my weight loss journey begin!
