Day one of my new life, I'm starting over without even having to change my name, move, my hair, or even change jobs. As I'm feeding my two month old I realized that nothing is going to change if I don't make the effort. I'm so used to things going my way without having to do much. I must admit I am kind of spoiled in that sense, but trust me I am a very thoughtful person. In fact I love to take care of others as it makes me feel good to know that I helped just a little bit. So why can't I do that for myself? Sounds easy right? Take care of yourself first then others. Ha! I've said that before and now I am 70 pounds over weight. Funny thing is most people who are overweight think they are much larger than they really especially after they start to lose the weight, but for me I think I'm thinner. My self image is really good, but I hate seeing pictures of me as I'm much more of a critic. I have decided not to think of losing 70 pounds but gaining control and understanding of my life in the following areas; Nutrition, Exercise, and Relationships. With all of these things I should be able to obtain and reach my ultimate goal of losing the weight and keeping it off. I'm doing this for myself and I will be healthy, so I can be around to see my little monkey grow up. I'm starting this new way today, my so called New Year's Resolution. My daily affirmation will be, "I look great and I feel great, I'm losing weight"
