Make the decision to change.
On January 1, 2012 I made the decision to take control of my weight. I had reached an all time high. I weighed in at 267lbs. I started working out and eating right. And in Febuary I hurt my back. I didnt lose any weight and began to get frustrated. In March, my grandmother passed away. I was crushed and I didnt know how to deal with my emotions. I was in complete shock. I was also in charge of eveyone emotionally. I couldnt cry and I couldn't mourn. I hired a traininer and in my first sesssion I broke down physically so much so that I broke down emotionally. I cried and I couldnt stop.
I wasnt ready to workout. But, I knew that 80% of weightloss was what you eat and 20% was your workout. So I decided to gain control of my eating. I started cutting out processed foods and in the month of April 2012. I lost 10lbs. But, I couldnt stand eating right 24/7. I wanted to cheat. So I adapted methods I had learned from other diets and created my own method.
It wasnt a diet to me it was a new way of life. I decided and from from May 1 through Sept 31st. I dropped a total of 75lbs. I was 192lbs. a size 12/14. I kept it off for over a year and half. In April of 2014 I came home from a cruise with a hurt leg only to weight in at 212. I gained 20lbs. I couldnt believe it. I decided to gain control again. So I got back on my method and began to lose. As of September 19th, 2014 I weighed in at 181.6. My lowest high school weight. I'm now a size 10 and medium in tshirts and pants. Now I'm deteremined to lose 35lbs by December 31st. I want to get to my goal weight of 145lbs. After which I want to tone and tighten and enter a bikini competition.
Make the decision to do something today to be here tomorrow. My grandmother is proud of me and I'm proud of me. Let's do this together and create a better way of life. One in which we can be proud of.
Let's do this!
