Kind of an NSV
I'd call it a victory. Today I was reading an inspiring Facebook page and found some motivation that I'd lost somewhere along the way. It was about 3pm and I had to be to work at 6pm.

Struggling so bad right now.

This is the first day of my *new life!
Today I'm starting fresh with my life. I've been heavy for all my life. I have taken control in the past only to let it go. I have a great amount of information on nutrition, as I've taken a few college classes regarding the topic. I've known long enough what I should and shouldn't be doing, unfortunately I haven't always…
