Hi all,

I've been reading many your inspiring diaries and thought I should start one of my own. I've never written a diary before, but here it goes.

My weight loss journey actually starts about a year ago when i was at my heaviest, 250lbs!!! I moved out on my own and decided to take control of my life. There were many ups and downs through the year, but by eating better and giving up drinking, I was able to get down to 226 as of last week.

At the beginning of the new year I was feeling pretty down because I knew summer was right around the corner. I would really like to wear a pair of shorts this year for the first time in 10 years. So my friend and I decided to do something about it. She joined Weight Watchers and I decided to eat extremely healthy and take on the insanity workout program. Well after the first week I lost 4lbs and cant wait to see where I'm at this saturday :D

The workouts are hard, but I would recommend them to everyone. Today I have the Pure Cardio exercise video to do :S......I never want to do them because I'm being lazy, but if I want results I have to work for it.

As for diet, I'm eating 5 small meals a day, which can be hard sometimes because I'm on shift work and can't always find the time to fit every meal in.

Well that's it for today.... I'd better go do my workout lol
 
So today had a rough start....I thought I would be able to get up early enough to have breakfast and make my lunch, all of a sudden I look at the clock and my ride will be there in 5 min. Luckily I had some soup already made from a couple of days ago, but I went without breakfast :(

I'm definitely finding that I have more energy and I really feel like I'm finally getting my life together. In my workout today I really pushed myself as much as possible....to the point where I could see drops of sweat on the floor, but it will all be worth it. I can't wait to weigh myself on saturday to see my progress :)

I'm having a lot of trouble trying to get enough grains in my diet, any thoughts?
 
Just wanted to welcome you to the forum and say congratulations on taking your first steps to getting healthy!!
