I'm a stay at home mom and my weight seems to jump up and down all the time. I'm currently at my highest weight ever.75kg and being 5'1", that makes me HUGE.
Recently i've been aware that i've been gaining weight due to my appalling eating habits and i realised i have a belly, but i thought i wasn't that bad...until i came across some pictures that my daughters have taken of me sitting back on the couch, looking GIGANTIC.My face, my boobs, my belly, my arms, EVERY part of me seemed like twice the size I thought it was.
I'm 28, turning 29 in March. my goal is that i want to be living a healthy lifestyle and to look good by my birthday and then to simply work on maintaining my health style.
So starting tomorrow morning i'm going to start working out on a cross trainer i've purchased months ago, but which i've just not really used seriously.
i'm committing to this new lifestyle now and i've decided to create a blog about my journey because in a way i feel it will give me a outlet that makes me accountable. Being a mother, i love taking care of my children and would not want to be doing anything else, but the lack of sleep and running around after them all day sometimes makes me want to take the easy way out and just be the couch potato i am.
in a way it's ironic because i've always LOVED fruits, all types of fruits, watermelon, apples, juicy peaches, any fruit is great. i also love vegetables- without dressing though because i dont enjoy the taste of dressings. and i grew up exposed to my mother's love of chocolate and unfortunately it makes me over indulge. the irony is i dont even like the taste of chocolate when i truly think about it. it's difficult to explain. just like i feel like i should be eating crap. only now i've decided it's got to stop so i feel like i will committ this time. and i will maintain. so starting tomorrow, October 14, 2012 i will be healthy and post about my progress daily!
