Weigh Day 1--Week in review

Today I weighed in losing 5.8 pounds. You wouldn't think that would make a whole lot of difference, but I already notice my stomach isn't sticking out as far. I feel better, cleaner somehow. I wish I had tons of time to type but hopefully I will make more time in the future.

Thinking about eating

So, my purpose of blogging though my weight loss journey has a few purposes. When I get to goal 1, 2, 3, and eventually I get to my goal weight I want to be able to read over my blogs and realize how far I have come. I want it to motivate me to keep striving to be the best version of myself and never give up. Also, I want to inspire other people. If I can lose weight then anyone can. Lets rewind to high school. A close friend and I used to do every single weight loss fad there was: the cabbage soup diet, grapefruit diet, rubbing a concoction of olive oil and red wine vinegar on our fat. We lost and gained weight. I had thin and fat clothes. We smelled of cabbagen and salad, depending on the week. At the time I didn't fully understand being healthy and weight loss. At one point I was down to 120 points and I still thought I had weight to lose. It didn't help to have thin friends who made comments when I was in my fat pants (150 pounds) that lingered in my head no matter how ...

Beginning Again

So I created this blog and I have been lazy about it. For the longest time I have had this idea that I would be one of the first people to start a blog with a lot of weight to lose and I would use my blog to track my success. Then when I get to my goal weight I would have a real account of it. For some reason life gets in the way, that's how it's always has been. Well, today I am starting this blog and I am going to write in it regularly. I doubt that many people will read this, but I know that there is something about writing that helps me to work through my thoughts and my hope is that as I do I will learn more about myself and help someone. I mean, even if it's just ONE someone. So, join me as I learn how to lose weight again, how to be disciplined again, and how to maintain my weight loss. To the Journey, HJ

Weigh Day 3--Up .8 pounds

I don't know why I am not quite as angry as I thought I would be with myself at having gained weight this week. I know that week one I was a rock star when it came to documenting everything I ate. Week two and three I slacked off. I think it is that I imagined that after one week I know how much I can or cannot eat and still lose weight. Well, I don't. I have had many bad habits for about the past 10 years which I hope I can break in a few months. It's so frustrating. I can vividly remember being very skinny and I wish there was a switch I could turn on and be 130 pounds. Uggg. Well, this week I vow to myself to blog everything that goes in my mouth. Also, this week I will implement exercise into my diet. This week I promise to myself that I will exercise 4 days this week at 1 hour each. On another note, today is the 2nd day feeling sick. Hopefully I will lose weight this week, since I have been sick, but it didn't help this week! Hoping tomorrow I wake up feeling bet...
