Well I did it, I started my morning at 5:45am .. walking 1.5 miles.. I am so proud of myself (and my hubby) for actually getting up that early and doing what we said we would. I also watched my portions and drank tons of water. It was a good day. I'll be the first to admit the weekend was HORRIBLE.. I don't know how I let it get so bad.. my mind set is that if I eat one bad thing.. ie an ice cream sundae.. that I've ruined the days calories so I should just be able to eat what I want and start over the next day... That is a bad idea.. I need to get it through my very stubborn, very thick head that I can not keep doing this. I know I will have bad things, I will allow it.. but I can not have bad thing after bad thing after bad thing.
Now I need to continue throughout the week so I can see those numbers on the scale going down... my week's goal.. no "bad food" until the weekend... it is a holiday after all.. and to talk at least 4 of the 7 days...

Day 1
I've decided to jump on the blogging bandwagon. For now I think I'll keep my posts to myself.. maybe I'll broadcast my blogging someday but that's not why I'm doing this... it's time to smarten up and take the steps to make myself a healthier person.
I am doing this because I need to improve my heath and my energy level for my son. He is 18 months old and always on the go. I get tired too quickly and I miss to many important things. I also believe losing weight will improve my mental health.. and stop some of my bitchy tenancies. My relationship with my husband can also use some work.. lose some weight.. have more energy for hanky panky.. simple as that.
My currently weight 250lbs (disgusting), my long term goal is 175lbs... it will take time but with persistence, faith and support of my family I know I can do it.
My plan: move move move.. starting now my goal is to walk 3-4 days a week in the morning before Moose wakes up. I will adjust my plan as I begin losing weight. I also plan on watching my portions very closely, increase my water intake and continue taking the cinnamon supplement.
Here is my before shot:
So here we go..
