Enough is enough!
I have been overweight since I was a teenager. I have tried dieting before, but never stuck to it. Now, I am at the point where I just can't put up with being overweight anymore.
I started my lifestyle change 5 days ago, and have already lost 5.5 pounds. These past few days, I have averaged a loss of 0.5 pounds a day. I am by no means starving myself or anything, I have just adjusted my diet and completely wiped out sodas, junk food, and fast food (This loss is only so great now because I have shocked my system, going from a 3000+ calorie diet a day to about 1500-2000).
Next week, I plan to start walking. I am also going to be picking up 'Slim in 6', and work my way up to being able to do P90X (that will be months for now, as P90X is a bit too intense for me, for now).
My starting weight was 293, and as of today I am at 287.5.
I am determined to succeed this time. I WILL succeed. Seeing the pounds drop off already is a great motivation. And while I know soon it will begin to slow, I look forward to celebrating each mini-goal on the way to my final goal.
