Back on the HoRsE!

Hi fellow healthy friends! Long story short...I got married, it was emotionally abusive, over time I lost my self esteem. I got very depressed, stopped taking care of myself, gained 100 pounds.
I lived unhappily until I experienced the straw that broke the camels back. Last Monday I filed for divorce. Declared Labor Day Weekend as my new beginning! I have a new sense of self, strength and of couse FREEDOM! Today marks day 1. I logged my food and had my first day back at the gym. I struggled but I reached my 30 minute goal on the elliptical. I burned 400 calories! Yay me! I will make my food goal as long as I can stay away from the toll house cookies in my freezer!
Here are some pics to mark my first day. I intend them to be my BEFORE shots! Wish me luck!
I'm excited and hope to meet some fantastic people on my new journey!
