305 and counting.....

As many of you know I have struggled with being overweight for a long time, and health issues are starting to be more and more evident.

Following up on my wedding to my beautiful bride, I am dedicated to getting healthy. I have an eating plan and I have an exercise plan. In the past I always get off to a good start and then slack off when the going gets rough.

In an effort to get support, and maintain accountability, I will update this blog once a week with my progress. What can you do? Please leave comments of support, and check in with me when you don't see me making regular posts. THURSDAYS will be my posting day.
My goals?
Lose 2 pounds a week.
Exercise ( walking, swimming) 30 minutes 5-6 days a week.
short term goal- 30 lbs weight loss 15 weeks from now
long term goal- 100 lbs weight loss one year from now

As You know, I am joining you as well, my handsome husband.

I was 166 yesterday morning when I checked - that's about 40 lbs more than my lowest Weight Watchers weight.

I walked to train and back Wed.
Walked to train this morning!

It never gets easier. You just gotta remember, Calories In = Calories Out. Food is fuel and your body will adapt to the type of fuel you give it. Hang in there!
