My journey Begins...

I would like to start out by listing my basic goal of this blog.  My goal is to lose at least 50 pounds, to eat healthier and to maintain a healthy weight and to become physically fit.  Starting this blog is my way of keeping myself accountable because let's face it, starting a healthy life style is not easy and I have failed time after time.  I'm tired of looking in the mirror and thinking to myself "What the hell happened?", "How did I let this happen?", "Where did I go wrong?".

 
I want to be healthy not only for myself but for my family.  I want to be a better person so that my girls have a great role model.  Setting a good example for my daughters is important to me.  I want them to feel happy and comfortable with who they are, but how can they do that if I can't?  This has got to change!  And hey, who doesn't want to look at feel HOTT for their husband? ;)
 
Time to get to the hard part.  I weighed myself this morning, I weighed myself before eating, before drinking and the scale well it kind of scares me.  A lot of people say not to use a scale but I wanted to know my starting point, now I have it.  Keep in mind this is not easy for me, it is actually really embarrassing.  But I stepped on the scale and it read 169.2. WOW!  There it was, the cold hard truth staring up at me.  How could I not see this?  In all honesty, I could see this, I was in denial.  Not anymore, I will make this change.  I've done it before, I will do it again.
 
I will start off simple: * Drink a gallon of water a day
                                        * No more Coke (my weakness)
                                        * No more fast food
                                        * Exercise 6 days a week (starting with BBM)
                                        * Start with a 7 day clean eating challenge (would you like to join?)

Here I am Day 1, March 26th, 2015.  These are not the best photos but this is me.  This is where I begin:



Be back in a week!!  Wish me luck.
