So here's the boring stats:
33-F-208lbs Goal weight 160lbs
Ok so a lot has changed in my life over the last 6 months. Not only has the pandemic happened in NYC and I'm surrounded by things I cant control, the start of the year I decided to take my life back.
Step One: Emotional Health: It started with a divorce (which is not final yet). I had been so unhappy for such a long time that I had also most lost my life because of it. Married to a man who was never around (his choice or not) had very little emotional support and was just dying inside. New mom of two and a missing father and husband. I needed to take back my emotional health. I am still lonely and adjusting to being enough for myself. But if I want something better I have to be better for myself first
Step Two: Financial Health: On my own now, I needed to support my kids and myself without the little bit he helped with financially. This took hitting the pavement, but lucky for me, I found a job that I am considered essential and I have not been more financially stable in my life than i am now. The house I live in is mine, I have extra money left over at the end of the month to buy waterballons and play with the kids. We are no longer struggling and I am so proud of myself for this.
Step Three: Physical Health: Over the past 5 years I have gained 50 lbs. I have always struggled with my weight but now I am at my heaviest and it needed to change, just like everything else did. But this by far is the hardest for me since I gave struggled with my weight my entire life. Now its not easy, kids, pandemic, etc etc etc. I have an elliptical at my house now, plenty of rooms to exercise, but my eating is hard for me to change. This is the last step, the others are falling into place and this needs too as well.
I want to be happy, emotionally, financially and physically happy. I really procrastinated on my physical health cause it was the easiest one to pass over but without it, my life will still be unbalanced. It starts today, right now.
