"born-again"

I have been on here for awhile. I stopped using it for several months. In that time I did many things and thought a lot about my success and failure. I was quite stubborn before and I see that now. I wasn't willing to give up certain things or to stick to doing other things. I had to get to a point I wasn't at before to really see it. I knew I was out of shape and over weight, but I didn't really grasp it all in my mind. The many promises I made to myself and my family about getting in shape came to nothing as my actions spoke louder than my words.
So now I am back. Working out everyday and actually looking forward to it for a change. I gave up all of the food that was hindering my progress. I am done throwing my personal fit about not being able to play video games all night and drink too much. I am done eating all of those "treats" that I felt I deserved after minimal effort. I am taking this a million times more seriously.
Down 15lbs and 4% fat since I started in June and gave up and started and gave up etc. Now that I am back on track I hope to get to my real goals. One foot in front of the other. One drop of sweat at a time.
