Changing my way of thinking
When I started my journey here I was not sure what to expect. I’ve struggled all of my life with weight. I have lost and gained, cycling up and down not really knowing why. I have come to realize that to change, I must first make a change inside. Weight can be gained and lost, sometimes with little effort. To keep it off takes more than just diet and exercise, it takes a lifestyle change that you are willing to commit to for a lifetime. The weight is coming off slowly. Sometimes I even gain.With each change I look back at what I’ve done wrong and right. I realize I may not reach the Ideal weight set by my physician but I will be a heathier me. I am going to make that lifestyle change, my family deserves that. I thank God for the strength he has given me and for the renewed love I have for my family, my friends, and my brothers and sisters in Christ, and most of all for his son who sacrificed everything for me.

Hey Tazz, thanks for the comment I was starting to think I was going to be alone in this even here. It is hard for me because I do not have anyone around me who understands my desire to change my body, build muscle and eat clean. I love the way my shoulders are looking strong and I want to continue forward but not just for now…I want my body to reflect a comittment to myself and physical strength and my attitude to reflect a commitment to Christ. Keep moving forward.
