The past few days I have been down...in the dumps I think. Nothing I can pin point, but something has put me there. I feel like a need a change....a BIG one....
I have been talking to a few friends and I have decided that I am going to change some things about my lifestyle....I NEED to eat healthier, I NEED to start being more active....I NEED to lose weight!! I have been working on my issues of being un-affectionate....and I must say, I have given everyone a hug lately that would normally give me one. I am conquering that aspect of my life....now, I need to move on to another. I don't want to put a real time line on when I will start, how much weight I want to lose, or anything like that. I think that is just a recipe for failure. I don't need weigh myself and go by pounds....I want to go by clothing sizes. I just think the easier my plan is the better.
I am going to clean out the pantry in the apartment and start from scratch. We don't eat anything in there anyway..I will donate it. Kill two birds with one stone. I am going to have to be strong and realize that there are temptations everywhere I go...but for the sake of my goal, I will have to find the willpower to turn away. Now, a small cheat now and then is still going to be there...don't get me wrong! A cupcake every few weeks is a must...lol
There are things I want to do/accomplish in my life and the extra weight is a burden. I have done this before....ate really well, worked out 5 days a week and lost weight. I know I can do it again....I just have to find the motivation and encouragement I need to start.
I debated even writing this blog today. Because If I didn't follow through with my plan, then I would feel like a failure...but maybe having people aware of what I am trying to accomplish will help me stick with it...just a thought...let's hope it doesn't backfire on me...lol
I have been instructed on a book to buy that will help me eat "clean".....keep your fingers crossed it works!! So, I don't have a date set to start this journey but it will be soon...very soon...
3 Weeks Home!

Good for you! I wish you luck in your journey.
Hey, I've heard of this system (and can't remember the name, dang it) but it's like a competition and you earn points..not points for weight but for lifestyle changes. You can start your own group or join another...could be a good way to approach it.
I'll do it with you if you want :)
