Alright,
So this is my first blog. I've just realized I am through with being the weight that I am now. I'm going to change everything starting tomorrow. I'm going to tell my family and a few of my friends. It's been too long that I have been putting this off. I'm still just 23 years old and I've been over-weight for a majority of my life. I need to enjoy the rest of my life and it's going to begin tomorrow.
I already have a gym membership, I'm just embarassed and shy to go back because of how fit everyone is and here I am. Also I'm a little lost on the weights and how to use them. I'm going to be assertive and ask questions. I'm not going to care what people think of me or judge me I'm doing this for me.
I've always been called cute and I'm tired of that also. I know I'm beautiful on the inside and I'm going to show it on the outside.
I watch Biggest Loser and I'm always so inspired by how they are all doing the wonderful accomplishments they are doing.
Anyways I'm ready to do this and I'm committed to accomplishing what I want to do.
I'm using the ;loseit' app on my iphone to keep track of my calories and etc.
Does anyone know any good strength training that I can start off at the gym? Or if there are any helpful youtube clips. It would be much appreciated.
I won't be able to start the gym till Sunday but than I'm going to go at least 5 days a week. I'm thinking 40 minutes cardio. I usually do elepitcal but I'm scared of the treadmill... I might wait another week or two for that.
Anyways I should sleep. But I'm excited to start this journey.
hey! good luck on your journey... i started focussing on weightloss about a month and a half ago, started out at 240 myself! feel free to check out my blog (i spotted you on the "lessjess" blog...) i'm veganutrishine, i use live journal (but i'm not quite savvy enough to know the url yet!!)

In my journey so far I've found doing my own blog, reading others blogs, and being supercharged by folks comments has been a huge part of my sucess in dropping about 30 pounds (so far) I've got a long way to go, but if I can offer you something...
ReplyDelete1) consistency in blogging has kept me more focused and developing an awareness where I'm making very mindful and goal directed choices much better now.
2) You're likely to fall down sometimes... but realize your redesigning a new life and that is going to take work. I[ve had a lot of struggles... and failures... but I know I'm learning and I can see I'm making some progress.

I hope it might give you a smile and maybe a boost someday if you need it. I'd also like to request someday you might just share a cup of modivation with me too!
I've got about a hundred pounds to go, but I just look at it as just 2 pounds, and then the next two. They are adding up after a while!
