Since I have struggled with my weight my entire life I am growing very tired of the yo yo dieting scene. Since having my daughter 5 years ago my weight has gotten completely out of control and I haven't been able to get it under control. There is a huge mental aspect to losing weight and something seems to be missing for me. I don't know if there is something about being fat that makes me feel safe or if I hold on to the fat for other reasons. But every attempt at losing weight as gotten me down about 20 pounds and then I "fall off of the wagon," and gain it all back and then some.
I rejoined Weight Watchers a couple of weeks ago and am making a serious effort to lose this weight. My joints ache, my head hurts everyday, I am always sick and tired. I want to keep up with my kids and be sexy for my husband. I am tired of hiding from people when I see them out in public because I am embarrassed of how fat I have become.
I have seen others have success with blogging about their weight loss so I thought I would give it a try. This might help me work through some of the emotional issues I have with losing weight. I am not big on talking about my weight with people in my life so I guess blogging to a bunch of strangers is the next best thing.
My highest weight was 240 pounds. I am down to 225.6 as of right now. I will weigh in weekly on Saturdays and record my weight here. Oh and I am 5;7" in case anyone is keeping track .
