ready to change

Options
I'm Annie.. I'm 25 and I have a 3 year old. I hate the way I look, and the way I feel. I hate how when I wake up in the morning my back hurts, I hate that I don't feel pretty in anything I wear [even though I wear NICE clothes]. I hate that when I look at my self I feel sick. I hate the way I let my self go. I don't feel comfortable in public, and when my friends want to go to water parks, I make excuses not to go. That's not me. I want to be fun and out going.. My I don't smoke, and my sisters do. I always tell them "quit smoking, it's bad for your health, why do you smoke- it costs too much"... and then it hit me. I am doing the same thing as them, exposing my self to an unhealthy life style, I eat junk food, I don't work out- and it's bad for not only me- but my daughter as well. I'm ready to change, I don' want to be this person any more. So- here I am.

    You sound sad, but sometimes we have to get to that place before we make a huge effort to change. Take this one day at a time, and you will soon start seeing results which will create more motivation. You can do this!
