Re-Committment

I have made a decision in my life: I will loose 64.8 pounds. This time it’s going to be for me. I (like so many other people) have tried to loose weight and have failed. I’m finally sick and tired of being sick and tired.

No if, and, or buts FG…I WILL DO THIS!!!

I want to be healthier, lower my cholesterol, feel strong, run a 5K, shop in “normal” section of clothing stores, feel sexy, and be a better wife, daughter, granddaughter, cousin, and friend.

In the last year I have accomplished so much in my life. I started back to school and will graduate with my bachelor’s in Management Information Systems in December. I started a new job in August that is in the IT field. In January, I will start my MBA. I finally feel like things are starting to look up for me.

I worked at local bank for 5 years prior to getting my new job. I had such a dead end job and I didn’t realize how unhappy I was until I finally left.

Currently, I extremely happy with my life in terms of what I have accomplished in the last 12 months but my weight makes me sick. I have been with PNP for a while now and I have silently watched so many girls go from fat to phat. I am supper happy for them but at the same time I’m also jealous because I want to be like them. It finally hit me that I’m the ONLY one who can make this happen. I can’t just sit around and feel sorry for myself and expect thing to change.

At my new job the dress code is extremely casual; this is the total opposite of a bank dress code. While cleaning out my closet, I discovered that none of my causal clothes fit. Talk about depressing, I have 6 plastic tubs of summer clothes that do not fit!!!!

FG is my worst enemy and she running around crazy in my head. Action is only thing that will shut her up and eventually get her out of my head.

I have accepted the fact that I will need in this journey. While I understand only my action will make this happen, I will also need support from my family and friends.
