I am not sure what I currently weigh. The only working, accurate scale I have is at my parents house an hour away, but I plan to get to it this weekend. I am hoping that I will be down a few pounds from my original starting weight. So far I haven't been perfect with making healthy food choices but I can say a lot has improved. I no longer binge eat. I used to eat at every chance I could get whether I was bored, lonely, sad, happy, with friends, with family, or without and the list goes on. Anytime and anywhere always seemed appropriate for food to slip into the picture but I have finally taken that reliancy and pushed it away. In terms of food, I have put emphasis on limiting uneccesary sugar and have been more aware of what my body really needs and doesn't really need. Fast food and junk food have been cut out and I tend to lean towards healthier foods with proper proportions. Lastly, I drink only water and green tea. I think just from that combination of changes I have probably started some great fat burn since my last weigh-in. On top of that I have taken some initiative to be a bit more active but I can't say I workout everyday because I do not. I do have a physically demanding job for 3hrs/night Monday to Friday so that always helps. I also have taken up a new activity which is biking. I am making it my goal to use it 2x/week. I can say that I feel better and haven't had any bloating, upset stomach, abnormal stool (sorry if tmi), and my acne is dying off. My body has been used to the continuous abuse I have put it through but that is in the past. I think it's definitely going to change a lot for me if I continue these habits along with the attitude I have developed. A lot of my motivation comes from wanting to do better for myself and I also just want to feel confident in my own skin for once. I not only want to work on my physical health but my mental health and I am not going to lie that some of this energy has come from a recent breakup. Whatever the energy comes from I really hope that this change becomes an indefinite lifestyle so I can not only reach the heights that I want to reach but maintain them and be an example to others. I am determined to reach my goal of 160 for the end of October with a starting weight of 179.2. I don't think that's too much to ask of myself so I am looking forward to it. Seeing 169 will be a momentous time in itself for me so I am super pumped. Anyways, I will keep myself and anyone updated as to what I weigh in at this weekend and if anyone wants to reach out and get in touch let me know. Thanks for the view.
