Yesterday was a rough day, but I received a tremendous amount of support and advice from all of you. Thank you dearly for that!!
Taking the advice from an old friend, I am starting fresh as of today! My goal is still the same- to lose the weight and become healthier! It is a lifestyle change, not just weight loss and I need to continually remind myself of this.I felt like a failure before because my weight kept going back and forth! Since I am starting fresh, I decided to redesign my blog- what do you think?
I will start slowly and work my way up to working out every day. Baby steps- starting with taking Arielle for a walk each evening after dinner. We will both get some fresh air, and I will get some extra exercise. I will walk at least once a day around our building at work, which will also add to my exercise. I also need to up my water intake as I have been lacking in that department lately. More fresh fruit and veggies are on my list to eat more of too! Baby steps though...
I want to thank each of you for following my journey and being so supportive. It is because of you that I am not giving up! And, I NEED to get healthy so I can live longer and be more active with Arielle!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!
I am glad to hear you are not giving up!!!
ReplyDeleteThe blog looks nice- WHY not taking baby steps and setting your goal shorter- just so you can feel you are reaching it- one step at a time- like set your goal for 10 lbs to lose -once you reach that then go for another 10 lbs- i think i'm going to do that to my blog now-Keep going Dana
ReplyDeleteYay! Good for you Dana! :) Also, I really like the previous suggestion to set smaller goals for yourself.
ReplyDeleteI know how it is Dana. I have to go through fresh starts all the time. I need to go through one now actually. I am glad you are sticking to it though. I will pray that you are filled with renewed energy and excitement because that always helps.
