The start of a new life... begins now!



So today starts my second attempt at yet another diet. Last time I did a diet like this one, I almost reached my goal of dropping under 200 lbs., but I never quite made it, and it proved difficult to continue to lose weight. Now, obviously, I have gained the weight back, and then some. :( But I have something now that I didn't have before: a gym membership! I'm making a strict weekly plan, to make sure I work out at least once a day. 

So here starts a long journey I decided to take to a public level. From what I've seen with most success stories I've seen, support is mandatory for success. So if anyone decides here and now to follow me on my journey, I will forever love you!

A few days ago, I took a long hard look in the mirror, and this is what I saw:





Thick body, double-chin, nothing I EVER want to see again! I just felt sick to myself. 

Most, if not all of you know, I blame this entire down spiral of weight gain on my pregnancy with Kadree. It really did destroy my body, in more ways than just weight gain: I've become insulin resistant, my progesterone levels plummeted, and my hormones in general are all sorts of screwed up. All this I do feel is keeping my body from successfully getting pregnant. I saw this all coming a few years ago, and I decided to take action then, but in a way you probably wouldn't expect.

So, let this be the first of many progress pictures that I will be posting!
