Be Happy With Yourself & Pass It On!
I may not be old compared to others but my weight has aged me physically. I love keeping memories but don't want to be remembered for how I look right now. My self-esteem went to the top of the tallest mountain and dropped off the edge, wanting to rise again but too crippled to stand. The mirror is my enemy. My mind manipulates me to believe that my husband is a liar when he tries to convince me I'm beautiful. I want to remember what is was like to be me before the weight gain...before the ...

I want to remember what is was like to be me before the weight gain...before the negative attitude...before the unhappiness.

My Goals:
Exercise 30 minutes a day three times a week. One physical activity a week with my husband. No Soda.
My Program:
To the gym every other day for 30 minutes. My encouragement to go is watching cable, so I go online and look up my favorite channels and find a show ahead of time that I want to watch that will work with my schedule. I plan on Sundays what physical activity I'm going to do for the week with my husband so I know the goal, then I try to plan it a little early in the week just in case something goes wrong and we have to cancel on that day I still have half the week to do it another day. As for no soda...when I go to restaurants I get water with a lemon or mix it up by asking the server if they have a couple limes, strawberries, oranges, even cucumbers that they can throw a couple of slices into my water for me. They are usually pretty nice about it and have some time of fruit on hand to make your water not so boring.
Personal Information:
My husband and I dated for an entire year before we got married and we are soon going on our 3rd anniversary in May 2012. Since we have known each other we have been gaining weight rapidly and I'm starting to notice both of us no longer have any self-esteem. We seem unhappy and I don't want our lives to continue this way.
Other Information:
I'm 27 years old and live in Bountiful, UT. I work at an animal hospital and also own a costume business with my mother. My husband and I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and we are currently fostering 1 kitten and 1 dog.
