SGJR8860’s BodyBlog

Didn’t I say before that I was a miserable blogger? Well, here’s the proof! It’s been about a year between now and my last posting. Where do I even begin to outline everything that’s gone on since then? Well, let’s just hit the most important things.  I stopped working out consistently, for one thing. I’ve ballooned back up to about 355 lbs., for another, and the ‘news’ just keeps getting better, since now I’m taking medication for bulging disks in my lower back! YAAAAY! Haven’t had this much fun in YEARS!

But seriously, I thought I would’ve been a lot further along at this point, and it seems like I’ve slid back beyond the "starting at Square One" point. But I also now have a plan that’s taking shape a little more each day, to combat this weight and to start to take it off the proper way, so I can KEEP it off. My latest push towards my goal is to document every aspect of my journey and ‘broadcast’ it both on YouTube and on Facebook, so that anyone else struggling out there and on the verge of giving up can know one very important thing: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. So many times, it feels like we’re the only ones out here wrestling with pain, injuries, sacrifice, frustration, guilt…even when we have a great support system in place.  This series aims to show people that this is not true - that it’s possible to find support if you don’t have it (or never did), or that you should never take the support you have for granted.

This life-changing experience begins for me with the first "webisode" in August of this year. I hope that everyone will ‘tune in’ for it. It’s going to be a ride like you’ve never seen before! And certainly like nothing I’ve ever done in my life!
