I have a goal to loose 87lbs to start then I am going for the other 40 or 50 lbs. My doctor says I would have to be an athlete to get down to that to be realistic. So I am going at it optimisticly. If I can do the first 87lbs, then I will readjust my thinking and see how I look and feel, and then if I want to go for the rest of the weight I want to loose then I will. I just really want to be healthy and have more energy,basically feel better and look amazing too. For definite I want to be around to see my kids graduate, marry, and have a life and family of their own before all this weight makes me croak over and die. So to do what I have set out to do. I have this motto:
ITS TOTALLY UP TO ME. to eat daily reccommended calories
ITS TOTALLY UP TO ME. to try to drink enough water
ITS TOTALLY UP TO ME. to take my prescribed meds like I am supposed to.
ITS TOTALLY UP TO ME. to exercise like I need to
ITS TOTALLY UP TO ME. to try to teach myself and family the right way to eat
ITS TOTALLY UP TO ME. to not have an episode and pig out just because I am depressed or have had a rough day at work
ITS TOTALLY UP TO ME. to just be happy
