Well, I guess I should start out by saying, I am really glad that this board is here. I have already seen a couple of people on here who are in the same category as myself, and it is nice. My husband is not a member here yet, but he has been ordering stuff to help gain weight and build muscle, I think he is going to sign up this weekend. He is trying to gain and I am trying to lose. I do not see a lot of people on here though, that are in need of losing what I need. Thats ok though, just I hope fit in!
About me….I am 5′5 and I weigh an astonishing 287 pounds. I have battled weight my entire life and a couple of times was on the perfect track, but it never lasted, not that I didn’t try, or want it to, it just stopped working for me. I have recently found out why. I have been doing some research trying to understand better my problem, and the more I research, the more I see it is my own fault. Not because of what I eat, or too much of it, because I probably eat healthier and less than most folks do. Come to find out that is most likely 50% of my problem….I never eat breakfast, I eat 1 or 2 meals a day, thats it! Long hours in between eating.
I have recently come across a program (that I know is not on here, but I going to do it anyways) it is a cleansing program, to cleanse away impurities, chemicals, toxins, and bad bacteria that my has stored for many, many years! Fat lives in these and needs them in order to live. This is going to be a hard 11 days, but I am ready to do it. I start tomorrow, (I think I have everything I need) if not, then Friday morning 3/14/08 will be my first day. I have lost already a few pounds with using this, and not following the program, so I am looking forward to the results, and then continuing a diet program, or at least a suitable diet and exercise regimen.
My goal is to lose 125 lbs. I have been debating whether or not I should lower my goal (in smaller increments) as they say, the longer it will take to achieve your goal, the easier it is to get discouraged before your reach it. But I think that as long I know I am accomplishing something, and working towards it, I feel that I will do fine with it. I just have to keep remembering why I want to do it, and how great it is making me feel.
I am a new mother, my son is now almost 5 months old, and I would like to be around when he grows up, and be able to do all of the things that he wants me to do with him. I am a very active person and I do many activities often. I have never had trouble with laziness, other than the normal, couch potato day every now and again. I keep a clean house, we raise dogs that are a handful, I swim, not near as often as I like, but only because I do not have access to a pool. I wish I did! I do like walking, especially now, I can take my son with me, I will not be alone, and he enjoys it as well. It has been cold, so have not been able to do that much, but the weather is getting nice, very nice actually, and I will be out and about with him.
Well, I guess that pretty sums it up for me. I will be starting my program tomorrow! I am excited!
