So i am a busy mother of three. After my first 2 children i took the weight with no problem but after my 3rd which was a very difficult pregnancy and recovery i have struggled to take it off and keep it off. A few years ago i managed to get almost to my goal but since then i have put it all back on and then some. I find it very difficult to do this alone. My husband also needs to lose weight but because of an injury he suffered at work a few years ago exercise of any kind is very painful. I understand his issue but he uses it as an excuse to not do anything. Then i find myself going back to my old ways because its just easier. Its hard to find things that are healthy that my family will eat without complaining and i try not to buy junk food but with the kids in the house there is always something. I can get the determination for a while and then when i see results(or dont) i think Oh i can have a day off then that leads to 2 then 3 then 4 and so on and so on until one day i wake up and go ” what the hell? how did i end up here again damn it” then i am so depressed that i cant get the motivation to get off my ass again. Well this time is going to be different. I am making changes i can live with and have a real goal. I want to lose 50 LBS. by next April. I know i can do it if i just keep going. Nothing tastes as good as being fit feels. Thats my moto this time. I am allowing myself to have a treat everyday but instead of the whole box of candy i have just a half a serving. Enough to cure the sweet tooth without ruining my whole day. I am determined that this time i am going to get to my goal and stay there. I am worth it. I know that after a while of eating right and working out i start thinking “well being fat isnt that bad, my hubby loves me the way i am so who cares i am done with this” then i stop and start gaining it all back and start all over. Well Tai remember this time that being fat sucks. You dont like the way you look or feel or respond to things in your life when you are overweight. Stop making excuses and do something about it.
