new and ready to make things happen!
Hi everyone!
I just had my routine physical this week, and I've had it. I weighed in at 243 pounds, and it's time to do something about this. My blood pressure and cholesterol were fine...which makes me feel guilty :/ My body is doing its part, but the conscious decisions I make to over-eat and not exercise, are eventually going to catch up to me.
I'm 32 years old and have a wonderful boyfriend. We are saving for marriage/a home, and hope to have all of this in place within 12 months. At that time, I would like to stop preventing pregnancy, and begin letting nature take its course. I imagine I'm pretty fertile because I got pregnant last year while faithfully taking birth control (ended up in miscarriage), but only time will tell. It is my goal to be in a healthy weight range while trying to get pregnant.
My biggest issue is that I feel as if I'm depriving myself if I don't eat everything I want/everything in sight. And I don't like to cheat myself. I'm going to journal and try to get a lot of these unhealthy feelings and emotions about food out in the open. So here's to a better, healthier head space and lifestyle!
