A day at a time, a bite at a time, a step at a time
This is not a success story. Or at least it did not use be. I’ve been obese all my adult life and still am. When I registered with Spark People just after New Year 2006 my hopes to lose were high. And I lost a bit. But then gained it all back and more. That's the way life is - if you are not ready for change it simply will not happen. And if you are not sure why you want that change or if you want it for the wrong reasons it gets even worse.

I am not sure that I am ready for a big change now. I am not sure that I will ever be. But I am certain there are small changes that will make a difference. Manageable adjustments in my habits that will not impress anyone but will make me feel better.
So I am starting with those and this time my biggest goal will be not to change myself but to be myself.

My Goals:
I'm here to lose weight but also to learn how to keep it off. My ultimate weight goal is very very vague (58-70 kilos) and with no timeframe but I do set very specific midterm goals. That's proven itself to be the best working tactics for me.
CURRENT MIDTERM GOAL: 85kg by October 28th
My Program:
I'm back from a couple of months off plan so I'm taking it easy. Drinking my water, eating regularly and trying to stick to smart food choices but not tracking food yet.
My strict plan includes eating controlled portions 3-5 times a day, having protein and complex carbs at every meal (with some exceptions for snacks), taking two salsa classes a week and hopefully adding some extra activity to that.
Personal Information:
I'm Bulgarian Living in Sofia Bulgaria. Being a translator I have one of those modern jobs that keep you in front of the PC for long hours and at times manage to stress you so much they drain every little drop of energy that you might somehow muster. But don't be fooled, I love my job. As hard as it may be at times it is always rewarding and I'm not changing it.
I am currently in a great relationship with a great guy, have quite a large gang of very good friends and to be frank I really feel proud of the people by my side.
Other Information:
I adore cooking and here is another profile to prove it: http://www.recipezaar.com/member/70536
