My Own Weight Loss Journey

On April first I began the 30 day Weight Loss-a-thon from My 52 Weight Loss Missions.


August 2011 I decided that I was depressed and why was I so depressed? Because I was fat. My husband and I began to argue a lot and it was more of me picking fights with him all because I was unhappy about the way I looked but after 5 kids I knew that I would not be toothpick skinny.

We were arguing a lot that week and i made the decision that i was going to call the 'fat doctor". So I did and I got in to the office with no problem.

The one thing that I know is that no matter what it is you do to lose weight, if you do not change your habits, you will gain it all back and most likely you will gain more than you lost. At least that it the way it has always been for me.

Since that day in August, i have been successful in losing 47 pounds. But I know that one day there will be no more medication and I will be left to go at on my own. So the reason I am doing all of this is because I want to change these bad, unhealthy habits now so that I can remain to be successful for the rest of my life. If I teach myself to fall in love with exercise - even if it is just 10 minutes a day, then I have a better chance of being successful in this whole weight loss journey.

If you are reading this, i urge you to take this journey with me and let me know how you are doing.
