Starting out...again

kblpn

So, I decided that today being 12/12/12 was no better a day than any to really get back on track. I have tried and succedded to lose weight with every fad diet, prescription pill, meal plan out there. In the end, as it typically does, I managed to gain every pound back (and then some). I am a nurse, I know how to lose weight and do it right, I know how to eat right and bottom line is- I just don't. I can come up with a million excuses of why I can't go to the gym, eat more healthy, etc. I know this will only happen with a drastic lifestyle change, and at 33 y/o I wasted enough time being unhealthy and unhappy. I am here for support and most importantly to be support for everyone else out there on this crazy journey. I know it won't be easy, and for a little while it will down right suck, but it can and will happen. I am my own enemy in this... but that's all about to change!

Courtesy of Skillet (also a great workout song), this is my motto for now:

I'm awake I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside
Now it's my time
I'll do what I want 'cause this is my life
here (right here), right now (right now)
I'll stand my ground and never back down
I know what I believe inside
I'm awake and I'm alive

Good luck to all!
