Hey everyone. First post here. I’ve been lurking and wanting to say hi for a few months now, but afraid that if I “announce” my plans to finally lose weight I’d be setting myself up for disappointment when I fail.
I just did the math, and if I’m consistent with losing one pound a week, it will take me a year to reach my goal. A YEAR. The longest I’ve ever been disciplined in taking care of myself in any way was like a month, at best.
The truth is, I make excuses for making unhealthy choices, and even though I don’t want to admit it… I’m the only one responsible for neglecting this body. It’s also only my responsibility for fixing it. No one is coming to save me from myself.
I’m feeling like I have a huge, long, scary hill to climb, but trying to remind myself of all the reasons why I want to be a healthier me. And being vulnerable and honest about where I am and what it will take to get me over this hill feels like the first step in making this goal feel real.
So here goes. Here’s me: F / 40 / Current weight-215lbs / Goal weight-160lbs / Goal target July 2022.
I can do this, right? Tell me I can do this.
