I've got to lose this baby weight! (My son is almost 2!)
 

Happy Saturday everyone!

I am a newbie to 3FC and I thought I'd give a lil intro...

I recently turned 26 and realized that I have been wanting to lose weight for about 8 years now! That's insanity! If I would've made some honest effort between then and now I would've reached my goal years ago. Instead, I've basically put my life on hold, putting off everything from vacations to job opportunities because I'm not happy with how I look. It's taken me this long to acknowledge that this is about more than food and the number on the scale and I have no choice but to dig into the bigger issues if I want to lose the weight, heal, and get this monkey off my back for good.

I believe that the answer to weight loss success requires a multifaceted approach - mind, body, and spirit!
I am making the commitment to myself to start meditating, eating healthy, pilates, and journaling - if anyone has any additional suggestions...I'm all ears!

*side-note: My beautiful baby boy is almost 2 and I just stopped nursing :o...people have praised me for my "commitment to my son's health" and I have to accept their acknowledgement knowing full well that the motivation was actually very selfish b/c it kept my weight at a "comfortable" place. However, I have since gained 10lbs thus prompting this divine "realization", lol.

Wish me luck!
