A horse of a different color

I am a wife and mother of 2 beautiful children. I am 39. I follow The Way, The Truth and The Life as much as a fleshy person can. I am tired of fighting this food battle, I want to win it. I want the war to be over, but I feel stuck. I take 1 step foward and 2 steps back. Life always gets in the way. I always get back on the horse, but any progress seems to easily disappear and I seem to stay in the same place. All that work turns into nothing and is soooooo frustrating. I feel like I ...

I feel like I am a dune buggie spinning it's wheels in the sand.


I will be 125-135 and a size 6/8. This time the horse I get back on is a differnet color. Being FAT feels aweful. I will make it down to my goal weight. I am not going to give up until I get there and plan on staying there. I am embarrassed to put summer clothes on. I used to be a fashion buyer and now I am having to cover my fat up. Yuck! I am going to feel and look good as I eat right and excercise. I am making excersize and diet a priority! Please help me on my journey.

Thanks for the warm welcoming!

I am back on track running 30-40 minutes 3 days/week and plan to increase it to 5 days. I can manage that. I know I need to ramp up the calories burned to a higher intensity, but I am trying to form the routine again.

How do you manage set backs? I lost 10 pounds. I got sick, then put an ulcer ontop of that and gained most of the weight back and got out of the routine. I feel like I worked so hard for really nothing. I am stuck at my wieght. It is like someone keeps pushing me down. I keep getting back up, but don't end up getting where I want to be.....125 (or keeping weight off and continuing my good eating/excercising habits)

So what I have so far is...tracking food, blogging, water and keep moving. This is working. I like doing it. I suppose I need to add motivation as well. Help me with your motivation. I would appreciate it! emoticon

Hi there !

Thanks for the pic comment. My advice is track track track! Track your food and watch your sodium intake. Also water is key! I started out exercising on the Wii with 20 min at a time, then worked my way into a gym, and now I do kickboxing and strength training several times a week. I LOVE to run also! The main thing is to stay positive and remember that there will be setbacks and plateaus.. don't stress about it. Just keep on going! You can do it !!
Best wishes on your journey ! Looking forward to seeing you soar.

Kelly
