My weight loss pace is very slow, but I'm still losing, so I'm ok with that. I'm feeling better about myself and that means more than anything.

I'm back!!
I started trying to be healthy and lose weight about 2 years ago. I did okay. Then I stopped trying. This year, I've reached a high of 218 lbs and I'm not happy with myself anymore. I decided at the beginning of July that I wanted to change. I'm taking it slow. I decided to get my eating a little more on track first. I'm still working on that! I've lost 13 lbs in the process. My first real goal is to be below 200 lbs, and I'm slowly getting there. Slow is good. I'm okay with that!
I plan to begin adding exercise soon, even if it's just regular walks around the neighborhood or jumping on the stationary bike. It's hard to make yourself do that when you work right at 40 hours a week. I need to force myself to do this. I can't just get my eating under control and then leave the rest out. It's a journey, but I'm ready to begin a new adventure on it. I think exercise will be an awesome adventure.
Water is my other problem. Water tastes amazing when I'm super thirsty or hot. It tastes pretty blah when I'm just trying to make myself drink more of it! lol I need to work on this so that I can at least get my minimum water requirements in. Easy, right? Yeah, we'll see about that! But it's another of my goals, so I'll eventually reach it :)
I may not post daily or weekly, but I do plan to post more often to keep track of where I'm at in my life.
