Bloggin along
Jun 20, 2012
Well I figure today is the day to start my blog-June 15th- The day I took the plunge-
I decided that I was tired of being fat- I am a very active larger person- I am a second degree blackbelt, play softball, and basically do what I want. I have never allowed my weight to stop me from doing ANYTHING I wanted too. I have however seen my weight stop other people from allowing me to do what I want to- I know the prejudice is out there towards overweight people. I have experienced it, even thought times I have told myself it really wasn't happening. So I decided to take control of an out of control situation and get healthy.
The first step I took was to sit down with my family and get their input- I knew that without a stable support structure no matter how hard I wanted something it would make it that much more difficult for me to obtain the goal if I didn't have it. The first person was my boyfriend. I asked him if he would support me- His response was more than expected- He stated he loved me as I was, and would love me the same smaller. He cared about me for who I was not what I looked like. That he thought it was a great idea for me to get healthy- so BINGO what a great man- My dad and brothers also were very supportive so I plugged forward-
