Back again... nothing has changed

erelyl

I have bounced in and out of here a few times. I just updated my info and realized that in 5 years the only thing that's changed is my age. 5 years and i'm still overweight, unmotivated, frustrated. Something needs to change. My once active 4 yr old is now a 9 yr old who'd rather play video games than go out and play. This is NOT the path i want for him.

So, today it starts. Again. Mid week, odd date, who cares. No point putting it off til tomorrow, that certainly isn't doing me any good.

My plan: Drink water (and coffee... i'm not stupid). Log my food. Start wearing my fitbit and getting up off my butt more. Avoid deep fried food (I have actually been doing really well with this since xmas!) Blog my feelings and challenges and successes. Hold myself accountable. Model healthy habits for my kiddo so he learns how to make healthy choices.

I'd love some friends along the way. If you're new, or new again, especially if you're a busy working parent struggling with keeping it ALL together, say hi. I won't judge. I will encourage. I'm not ready to share this with my RL friends yet, so a virtual support system would be fantastic.

Wishing you all the best
