cierrablueI'm saying it here because I need to have a place where I've solidified my goal for when it grows distant in my mind but I am not saying another word to anyone around me. I'm doing it for me and not for approval.
I'm 52 and I weigh 199lbs. I wasn't always fat but I sure am now. Getting thinner to look cute in clothes doesn't really seem to motivate me. Staying alive does. At this weight, I will die sooner than I'd die naturally. I don't want to die sooner than I should.
This is my year to get it in control for the rest of my life. Loosing weight is the easy part. Learning to change how I eat forever will be more challenging. That's why I've taken a year. The weight will come off in the first 6 months. Weight Watchers is amazing and I've had great luck with them in the past. So the first 6 months will be weight loss, the second 6 months will be strength training and the whole year will be getting in the habit of eating right and exercising regularly. To the critic in my head and any potential critic reading... you have no idea what I'm capable of. Just watch me.
