My Weight Loss Journey...




My weight journey has always been a struggle since high school. It started because I wasn't in a very healthy relationship. Can we say emotional eater?? I also went through an eating disorder, which is soooo not me. This was a path I knew I couldn't be on forever.
After I got out of that relationship I began running and sticking to a healthy diet. I felt sooo good! Then I met Keith...
Remember when you first start dating someone, and the common thing you do with them is go out to eat?? Yup, that was us!!! All of a sudden my muffin started expanding...
Then the marriage weight happened. The "I'm happy and comfortable" weight :) Now that I've been married for almost three years, it's time to shrink that muffin top.
So I've started the couch to 5k program. Hopefully I can run a few miles without dying soon. That's my hope anyway;)
I need to just focus on my diet and how much I exercise, and that will be my key to beating this weight loss. I cannot get caught up in everyone's opinion on it, or take people's comments to heart because ultimately this is all about ME!!
until next time...
