Okay I debated on whether I wanted to do this or not, but I got a look at myself in the mirror this morning, not sure who was looking back at me. So here we go!

The first step is usually the hardest...now you are done with that. On to the next baby step...go..Stephanie..go!
Have flaws I know, everyone of them earned (2 kids) I just never really saw myself as anything but what I looked like when I was 21. For some reason this morning I saw something different, and I did not like it. In fact I am felling pretty crappy about it right now. Sorry just need to vent!
Its ok Stephanie! I think alot of us have been there and are going through the same (or similar) thing.I have been feeling crappy about myself for a long time.. and I felt hopeless.
Just remember to start small. And not get frustrated with yourself.. because you ARE trying and that's whats important!
We are here for you :)
Thanks for the support!! I guess I just never really looked at myself. I have a wonderful husband who loves my curves and thinks I am incredibly sexy, so I guess I should not complain.
Okay so far today...40 min on treadmill
banana
apple
lots of coffee, some water
I usually get my water in at lunch which is in an hour.
Stephanie that is so great that you have a guy that loves you for YOU and not how you look on the outside!
He is a keeper!! He is pretty awesome himself. We have been together 16 years.
Hey Steph! Glad you could join us here on the WL thread. As everyone is saying take it slow. There will be good days and bad. But you are here and that's making the biggest difference right now. Keep it up!
Thanks Kenjii, I appreciate the words of encouragement.
Hi, Stephanie kudos for you, starting a new thread. Yay!
The weekend was not so good. Had good intentions to exercise, but did not quite get there.Today though:
40 min on treadmill
liter of water, coffee, and Earl Grey green tea after lunch.
good breakfast and good lunch.
Now if I can stay out of the crap while I am cooking dinner =(
Tuesday:No exercise, up late on Monday night (**grin**)
eat well and drank lots of water, no food after 6 pm
Wednesday:
41 min on Treadmill
venti non-fat carmel mocha (breakfast)
lunch-will be lean cusine and apple.
dinner-will be subway-I wont be home until late tonight.
Okay so I have been kind of not posting. I have really been watching what I eat, but not exercising as much as I need to.My family will be leaving for FLA in 16 weeks. So my goal is to be bathing suit ready by 6/8/09.
New Week:
3/2/09 Eat right all day no execise though...stayed up late reading.
3/3/09 40min on treadmill
Smart one for breakfast 4pts
Eating right is very important. That is one aspect that I'm trying to work on myself. If you got that part right, then you are almost halfway done with the battle.We'll keep reminding you of your goal. Watch out for that bathing-suit ready body..LOL
Kudos for keeping your diet in check, as Yz said, it's the key to weight-loss. You have great incentive and you do workout some, right? Just stay on track and you should be fine :)
