Weight... What?

There comes a time in your life when you can't keep lying to the person in the mirror anymore. When clothes don't fit like they used to and when you realize your happy fat isn't making you very happy. You are constantly stressed out and tired and you know that the food or drinks you are drinking aren't making you feel better but worse! This is what I feel like and this is the very last straw!

It isn't a problem of laziness, although that would be a nice change, but a problem of self worth. I don't think I'm important enough to take care of my health. I am very good at taking care of work, school, home (sort of) but I don't make myself a priority enough to use the gym pass I am neglecting and to eat healthy food. Why can't there be a magic pill or something that takes me back to my high school weight? Ugh!

So I am putting it in writing that I will follow these guidelines for myself for a healthy lifestyle change because diet is a dirty word, right?

1. NO SODA
2. Work out 4 hours a week
3. Get a decent amount of sleep
4. Grocery shop for healthy foods once a week
5. On my days off make myself a priority
6. Take doggies on walks more often
7. Get rid of junk food (it's my weakness... there's a jar full of candy right next to me.. haunting me)
8. Relax

Ok my blog reading friends! I will show you that I can reach my goal of dropping 15-20 pounds by the end of the year! So I have 52 days to make a difference for myself! Wish me luck!
