September 2012. 261 lbs. My friend Kim and I decided to start a weight loss challenge. I placed 3rd with 35lbs and 17 inches lost!!!! I continued to move forward. January 2013... -55lbs total!!!!!! I got down to 208lbs. I was so close to being under 200!!!!! Started another weight loss challenge. February 2013. Stopped. Have done NOTHING since.
My current weight is 224lbs. I am a little sad, I cant seem to get myself going on it. I am DETERMINED though. Even when I am not motivated. I have to loose this weight!!!!!! For me, for my kids, for my life. I have a long road ahead of me, and I hope for this to be a true documentation of that journey. Weather people read it or not, I feel like writing it all down will some how help.
So tonight, after 4 months of doing basically nothing, I jumped on the treadmill... it wasn't so depressing!!!!!! 20 minute run with no stopping!!!! I covered 2.8km...
My ultimate goal is to be fit enough to finish the Bloomsday race with my sister-in-law next year. I want to RUN it with her. Not walk it. I want to prove to myself, I can.
My short term goal... hit 217. This number stick in my head because at 217lbs I was weighed for life insurance purposes. Because I had lost more than 10lbs in the last year, they added 25lbs on to my weight. I will be reweighed in Feb 2014, and if I have kept it off, I get my true weight, and a decrease in my premium payment. I am determined to keep it off.
So here I am. Work out one complete. 2 days of food journaling behind me, and day 3 as a write off other than my workout. Be prepared for the good, the bad, and the ugly.
