I love waking up SUPER early .. like 4AM. I always feel great when I wake up that early.It seems like I have the most inspiration around two times: In the middle of the night or early morning. I love that I have my own little personal alarm clock. I love my son!
We have a long day ahead! My baby has an appointment 2 hours away with a GI doctor. So I am up preparing for the trip. I woke up and took some vitamins and had a shot of 5 hour energy ( I know bad bad).. but I needed the boost. The pat few days have been lazy days. I have had a sinus infection ( no excuse) so I haven't ate much but I haven't been active much either. I hope both my son and I feel better soon. I plan on taking his stroller to the mall today and walk, walk, walk! I always make better choices when I am 1.)happy 2.) busy. I just don't have time to sit...think.. and eat.
I plan to do a weigh in tomorrow. I am nervous because I don't think I have lost or gained. Probably just maintained. Also tomorrow starts my caffeine Detox ( oh yay headaches!)..I want my water back. Toady's goal is to walk a little more and make better choices. I am sure with all the temptation of going out of town it will be hard but I am sure I can manage!

What happened to progress?
I have done it. I can do it. I will do it again. Losing weight is simple in theory eat right (What is "right?").. exercise (With what time?).. get results (Easier said then done.)
When I think of addiction the words "drugs" or "alcohol" come to mind but I have a different addiction. It's food. I have battled food for so long. For years I was over weight and decided it was time for a change. I did my research and knew what I had to do. I began doing those things..and slowly saw progress. In April 2007 I weighed 250 pounds. After my my decision to change my life(it truly was a life changing transformation) by November 2008 I had lost over 90 pounds. I changed my life. I was happy.
What happened to my progress? I gave in. I stopped trying. I have an unhealthy relationship with food. I started eating to celebrate.. I started eating to help cope with the bad days.. I started eating because I had too much time.
What do I do now? I start again. I am a twenty year old mother to a beautiful four month old boy. I want his relationship with food to be different than mine. I want him to truly believe in "eating to live.. not living to eat."
It's not complicated .. I know what to do .. so now it is time to do it. I know I can't do it alone. I need support. I want to change lives. I want to show people it IS possible.
