Daily check-in
-Tracked all the food and drink (first time in weeks!)
-Under calories with plenty of room to spare!
-3 mile run after work - had wanted to do more, but we had a late bus so that was all I could squeeze in before it got dark
What is the reason that you wanted to get healthier and start this journey?
I had been pretty unhappy for some time. There were several horrific pictures. I was really at a point where I didn't want to go anywhere, see anyone, and certainly not have my picture taken. At the end of my first year in a new school district, I had decided that for the first time I was not going to teach summer school. But then I got pressured into it. So, I made a deal with myself that I would teach, but that I would let myself be selfish and irresponsible, and use some of the money just for myself. I hired a trainer that summer, and it was life changing!1 -

I hired a trainer too and it was a great decision, I would never have had the confidence to weigh train without her and thanks to her I've lost 50+ lbs and I feel great.1 -

I wrote a lot here and I must not have saved it! Tomorrow at 6 PM will be the end of my 55 hr. Clean fast. I needed to do this with all the great food around me. When I am fasting, I have more will power. I have not exercised as I am cold so I just want to wrap up in a blanket. No excuse though, especially where I am here in Las Vegas! But for me, It’s cold and rainy.1

Daily post
The past few days have been very trying but I am staying encouraged despite the pain I am in. I still have maintained my eating habits even though I have not been able to work out I'm almost out of my pain meds due to the fact that I can't go out because there's so much snow on the ground and I cannot risk a slip-and-fall since I use a walker.
Track yes
Water 94oz (not great today)
Exercise no
Calories way under2 -

What is the reason that you wanted to get healthier and start this journey?:
Well so so many reasons. I've been seeing a dietitian for a bit over a year now as I recover from an obsession with dieting, damage arising from yoyo dieting and binge eating. She speciaisises in intuitive eating and body positivity. I have 2 girls and 2 boys and I want to be able to run around with them and I want them to be active and happy.
I also don't want to waste the life I have. I've known a lot of young people who have not been able to have a full life and I feel that by not respecting my health I'm disrespecting them as I have a choice.
And finally my husband has a 94 yr old Aunty who is amazing, she is still doing her own shopping and looking after herself. She lived an active healthy life and her body has thanked her. I want an awesome healthy life. I want to be the best role model for my children and hopefully one day meet my great grand children. But most of all I want a long life, which is a gift, to honour those that leave this world way to early.1
