Succeeding One Day at a Time
I started this journey several months ago...and thought I wasn't succeeding. Did I lose weight? Eh, some. Did I gain some insight? A ton. I realized that I'm not just looking to wear a bikini. (Although, that'd be wonderful, not gonna lie!) I'm here - seeking your encouragement, encouraging you - because I'm tired of being out of breath when I hike.

I started this journey several months ago...and thought I wasn't succeeding. Did I lose weight? Eh, some. Did I gain some insight? A ton. I realized that I'm not just looking to wear a bikini.

I'm tired of feeling disgusting after a big, greasy meal. I'm tired of feeling sorry for myself.
I've seen so many inspirational stories on SP. Some of you had a hundred pounds to lose - and you did it. Some of you had 30 pound to lose - and you did it. You are my heroes. You're the reason why I'm continuing on this journey with more resolve. And as I continue, I can't wait to find "me".

My Goals:
I would love to develop, more than anything, a new lifestyle. But my goals are to be healthy, a little less tired, have a little more self esteem and lose about 35 pounds.
Goal #1: Lose 35 pounds to reach a "normal" weight
Goal #2: Be able to run 1.5 miles without stopping
Goal #3: Be able to run a 5k without stopping
Goal #4: Drop my BMI to a healthy range
My Program:
Stay within SP's recommend calorie limit.
Exercise at least 5 times a week for 30 minutes at a time.
Set small goals of two to three pounds and have rewards for each.
