well this is is. This is day one....
For months now, I've noticed I started feeling like crap. I started a new job that forces me to drive upwards of 12 hours a day which also Meant the only food I had access to while sticking to a schedule is the fast food and cheap junk food. When I first started this job I was 185 lbs and was in the best shape of my life. I loved working out and I loved being social.
Now after 9 months of driving and eating, I'm 246lbs, i "never had time for the gym", and I hate being around people who all seem to notice I let myself go.
Today i woke up and went to work, and actually ran into a former roommate from college and the only thing he could say was" what the hell happened to you?" I was crushed. But it also gave me my enough is enough moment. No more making excuses. A goal is now set and I will not fail. I have given myself 2months (until my 21st birthday) to get back under 200lbs.
now I must admit this "diary" is more for me at this point then about the people reading this. But maybe that will change. Maybe someone will read this and relate to it, and maybe even use this as a turning point in their own life. Today is day 1 of the new me, the better, healthier me.
