So I've decided to officially start a diet plan on Friday. A lot of people wait until the New Year, but I would rather bring in the new year weighing a little less- no need to make it worse... lol.
Don't get me wrong- I'm not obese or anything, I wear between a 10 and 12, however I'm 4'11- so it's considered to be overweight for my height. I would tell you my weight, but honestly- I don't know. I purposely steer clear of scales just so I don't get depressed. I can tell you that the biggest I've ever been (other than being pregnant) is like 163. I'm guessing I'm aroung 140 now, but my ideal weight is 110. I know ya'll are thinkin that's probably too skinny, but when I was there I wore a size 5/7 and felt great! I want to lose weight for the right reasons and that's simply to feel better about myself. The truth is... I have no "bad" habits, other than food, when I was younger I could eat whatever I wanted and was never taught healthy eating habits. Now I rarely eat vegatables, and pizza and hamburgers are at the top of my food groups.... it's sad actually. I eat chocolate and fast food a lot. I strive to try new healthy foods, but I always end of hating them.
So I'm working on not only a better diet, but also a fitness plan that at least include jogging the block a few times a week and take a weekend bike ride.
The reason I suddenly decided on this was because one of the ladies I work with that it much older than me and like a ridiculously small size runs five miles like every other day and looks fabulous!! If she can do it, so can I.
Now comes confession time... there is a weight loss center in my town that perscribes medication that I've been on before, and it works pretty well. I know it's not the best choice, but it does work, and speeds up the process. There's no bad side effects, and it's not addictive... so wish me luck!
