After years of struggling with weight, I've topped off at 218 lbs. I decided on Sept 13-09 that I needed to make a change. I've been up and down my whole life post puberty. I finally discovered that I just need to stop being afraid...afraid of being noticed. This morning I brushed off the scale...literally, and jumped on... 210 lbs. So I've lost about 8 lbs since the 13th. The 218 is an estimate using my weight from a weigh in two months before...
I hear my son in the living room tell hubby I dusted of my scale...all I heard from him was a "hurumph"...Oh well, I don't need to have a round of applause...and that's why I've come to this forum for support. We all have our own issues...and they come down to weight loss and a healthy lifestyle.
I've started eating breakfast...which I haven't done in many many years, and amazingly I feel much better! If I'd only known. I've been eating 1c Yogurt with a 1/3 cup Muesli (Jordans Organic) and I munch on Apples, Baby Carrots, Radishes...and small handfuls of Peanuts (no more than two) during the day. Whatever we have for our evening meal I halve my normal pre-Sept 13 serving. I have a couple before pics...and starting today I'll take the front, side and rear pics in the same clothes..probably a bathing suit. HOW DO I POST PHOTOS?
I've been swimming in the afternoon and that's the start of my exericise. I already know I'll need to increase the amount I do on a daily basis...I think that's pretty much all I needed to say...
