The alarm was set this morning and after I pushed snooze for the second time, John says to me "what did you set the alarm for?" and I told him to get up and exercise so he says " well get up and do it then". Now I know that sounds so simple but just him saying that to me was motivation to get my tired behind out of bed and do it!
I know this is journey is gonna be full of blood, sweat and tears LOL but its gonna be worth it so I'm in it to win it......you lucky people will just have to listen to my moaning and complaining while I'm on this journey! Its hard to find the time to document my food diary, weigh ins and whatever but I am willing to do this thing right this time. The advice I got was to weigh myself daily but only to record it once a week so that is what I'm gonna do! So tomorrow morning will be my first weigh in....I better really work today!

A new beginning....
Ok so this isnt really the 1st day of this journey but I just felt like I needed to keep a record. A way to remind myself where I came from, the sweat and tears involved in the whole journey and maybe to even encourage someone else!
I dont really remember exactly what day it was that I had my "meltdown/breakthrough" but it was sometime around my birthday ( Feb. 1st). I was looking at pictures I'd just gotten uploaded from Christmas and was mortified. Its hard enough to look at yourself in the mirror but when you see a picture and see yourself from other people's perspectives...well lets just say it was an eye opener. I'm not sure how I let this get so out of control, well of course I have an idea of things that contributed to it ( stress, pregnancies back to back, etc.) but I never could've imagined myself getting to the weight that I'm at. For goodness sakes, I wear almost thirty pounds more today then when I gave birth to my third child....sheesh. So embarrassing as this may be to bare my soul and my numbers LOL I am willing to do it if it helps me reach my goal!
I am determined to look better and fell better in my 30's then ever in my life!!!!!!
So here we go! The journey begins.......
