Excited!

Feb 25, 2009

I went to the doctor today for a follow up with the dietitian and got on the scales....my heart was racing, what if this did not work, TEN POUNDS in 9 days! WooHoo! I could not believe it! That made me so happy to see that my body was responding to this! I told them I had been on my elliptical (sp?) and they actually got on to me for doing that. I told them I just figured I would go in full force! I am motivated to get this weight off! I am more motivated than I have ever been.

I have always said that I hate being fat, but I never did anything about it really. A diet for a few months maybe but I never changed my life before. Well, this time is different! I have never been more determined to do anything! I am not sure if it is my precious children motivating me or the fact I am thirty now and know that now is the time to change. I could not put this off any more. I am sick of being told how beautiful and I am and how well I carry the weight! is that supposed to be a compliment? I mean really people......what kind of comment is that? I REFUSE to be the "fat mom" that is at ball games watching their kids play and not even being able to enjoy it because of my weight. I REFUSE to sit by while me daughter goes to gymnastics and dance and cheer-leading and not be able to participate because of my failure to lose weight! I REFUSE to set on the bench of my own life and watch it go by! God gave me this life to LIVE and I am going to LIVE it well!
