I have started this journey once before and ended up abandoning it all together. But I am beginning to realize how not only is my eating out of order, but so is every other aspect of my life. I waited 7 years after high school to go to college, waited another 2 years to begin a serious major-program, and after 2 and a half years in the major-program (general BA in Music) I have decided to change to music education. Things are unorganized in my life and I have spent my entire life post-high school just kind of floating through life. I want to be a success in my career and in life, which takes me holding myself accountable for my actions and asking myself the serious questions that I have been avoiding.
I am starting again. I don't want to wait until the first of the year - why put off reaching my goal, even by a few days? And I'm afraid that if I wait, then I'll lose my resolve to start. In about 2 weeks we'll be getting a treadmill and tonight I am signing up (again) for Weight Watchers Online. It really worked for me last time till I let life get in the way. This time I will work to use my new eating habits and exercise to be an escape from the pressures at school rather than abandoning it as more stress. Because I am 29 years old, weight 381 pounds, and I don't want to die.
So here goes. I'm taking the first step for the second time. But I will not be ashamed of failure. I will only be proud that I have the courage to dust myself off and begin again.
