Well, I have to admit that my life and weight had gotten completely out of control
Here’s the story:
I’m a not so recent college graduate (1 1/2 post) and I have still not managed to find a steady job! I have been temping and doing odd jobs here and there, and the list goes on and on. Needless to say, all of this have wreaked havoc on my weight loss journey. I gained more weight and realized that I am an emotional eater. When things aren’t going my way I eat to ease the pain and that is not at all a healthy habit to have.
I am also dealing with the fact that not living on my own has a to do with my weight gain as well. While I was in college and living by my lonesome, I had more control over everything I was eating. I had the funds to purchase healthy foods and cook in my own kitchen and made meals that were better for me. Living with my grandparents (and having no money for groceries) has damaged my weight loss as well. I’m pretty much pushed into a corner and forced to eat what my grandmother buys (in most cases not the healthiest) of foods.
So all of these factors have made me a depressed, crabby, unmotivated, fatty pants and I’M SICK OF IT!!
This has been the story of my life for so long and I have to make the choice now or never, so after this mouthful I have decided to take control! And my firstg step in that process is owning up to the demon that is my weight (shudders) I am going to list my current weight and my goal weight below.
Current weight:185lb
goal weight:125
Height:5’2
So, I have shared the damage and am ready to get the ball rolling on a healthier me! I have taken a pledge to document my journey no matter haw hard it gets at times, no matter how bad my eating is, and no matter how far I may fall off my wagon at times. I am making a conscious effort to change my life for the better. No more excuses!
