Dieting

Yep, I am dieting. Well, no actually, I am working on changing my life. I started using Nutrisystem about three weeks ago. It's not a diet, it a new way of thinking about food and your life.

It's only been three weeks and for two of those weeks I haven't been able to excercise (I threw my back out and just got clearance from my doctor to start excersicing again). I've lost 6 pounds!

I know it doesn't sound like much but, for me it's the first time I've weighed under 200 pounds in over 8 years! Now that I can exercise, I hope to loose more weight easier. Although, I don't want to loose it too fast because then I just have a better chance of gaining it back.

This is about change, true life change, permanent changes in my life. Changes in the way I think about food, changes in the way I eat food, changes in my exercise routine, changes in my attitude. I feel better about myself and my possibilities than I have in quite some time.

I am blessed.

  2. Thanks for stopping by my blog. :)

    Oh and congrats on losing those six pounds!! I know how huge of a feat that is because I've seen my mom struggle with her weight my entire life. She won't tell me how much she actually weighs but it's over 200 as well. I'm glad you found something that works. :D
