Starting Again!

I created this blog to try and track my progress as I am once again starting my journey towards a healthful life. To summarize my story. I was never overweight in high school. I felt I ate all the time and never gained weight. Now I was never teeny tiny either, but always around a size 6, wore a small top, etc. In college I began to gain weight from drinking and eating more and so on an so forth. I finally topped out around probably close to 190 several years after graduating from college. Then I finally put my mind towards losing some weight. Gradually I lost weight and got all the way down to 142 pounds, wore a size 8 and felt great! I told myself I would never gain weight again. My ultimate goal was to be 135 pounds. However, I got complacent. I started eating more than I should have again and sure enough I have since gained back a lot of my weight. I am completely frustrated that I have left myself gain back all of the weight I worked so hard to get off but I have finally decided to stop wallowing in my sorrows and get with the program again. Am I perfect? No. I love food, I love junk food. This is going to be my biggest struggle. But I am hoping that if I stay diligent with this blog that it will help me ultimately achieve my goals. I am now on day 3 of Jillian Michael's 30 day Shred and I am really hoping to stick to the program this go around. I am also going to use Weight Watchers online to help me try and track what I am eating as this is often the biggest issue for me. Anyhow! That is all for now! Wish me luck on my journey to health!
