My weightloss journey

I have decided to start blogging my weightloss journey. I am really starting to get serious about loosing the weight that I have tried to loose for so long. This will be for me to log my journey and be able to look back on it, to not only see the changes that were made physically, but mentally as well. Also to be an encourager on just how far I might have come to give the strength needed to continue on. Others will be able to see it and can post if they like, but do not have to. I am really excited to get this weightloss blog started and think that this will be exciting to look back on as I go and after the journey is finished!

I love watching The Biggest Loser and it inspires me everytime that I see the show and the contestants as they start finish their journeys. There are many things that have been learned from just watching the show, listening to the tips given, and doing some research of my own. I have changed my outlook on the things that I put into my body and the way I think of things in my life. I have also realized some situations that seemed to discourage me and have learned how to control them enough to make them the fuel of my exercising and mindset!

At the beginning I will try to catch up on what has been done so far, since I have been writing some things down in another journal, then after catching up, I should be blogging each Monday after I weigh in.

STARTING WEIGHT: 155 lbs
GOAL WEIGHT: 125-130 lbs

I started this journey 2 1/2 years ago at 169 lbs, got down to 157 lbs for a while, then down to 142 lbs. That has been the lightest that I have gotten to since before my middle little girl, Kayla, so that means it has been about 4 years. Slowly my mind went to other needed things and less on myself, but I am finally finding the balance between all the needs in my life, my weight is now one of my higher priorities! My weight has been fluctuating between 155 and 157 lbs and it has been 2 1/2 years since I have seen anything lower than 150 lbs, BUT my next blog will show that this statement has changed! I don't know if I am brave enough to post certain pictures, but we shall see!
