I'm in a slump. A very long slump. About my weight, that is. I'm the heaviest I've ever been! 3 weeks ago, I was in Utah for my brothers mission farwell and I ate enough for 12 people. I came back to my home in Idaho, got on the scale, and saw the numbers 253.2. Wow, even typing it just made me cringe. That is the heaviest I've ever been...ever. Being depressed about the number on the scale, I usually will just drown my sorrows in a bowl of icecream. But, this time I just felt angry at myself! I knew that I had to take action. The first week was great - I worked out everyday, my diet was pretty good. And I lost 8.2 lbs that week! The next week I lost 3 lbs. The next week I gained 2. That's about how all my dieting has ever gone - a really strong start, and then I fizzle out REALLY fast. I can't do it this time!!
I'm 27 years old. I will be turning 28 in March. And I'm 253 lbs!!!!!! That is not living. That's just eating and watching everyone/everything else go by. I'm ready. But can I keep it up.
I'm doing this blog in hopes that I can gain some insight as to why I'm not able to lose the weight. I will be posting video diaries and pictures to track my progess. Hopefully one day, there will be a post in this blog of success, and huge milestones achieved.
But, today is just a step. Hopefully a step to a better me!
