Hi all,
Let me introduce myself, I am Charleen, I live in AL, I have a ton of weight to lose but instead of starting out 2011 with the normal weight-loss resolution I put a twist on it. I didn't make the same old resolution. This year started out with a resolution to be more accountable to myself to ask for help when I needed it and to start journaling what I eat.
1st, How to be more accountable to myself. I've been posting on facebook and started a blog which I guess is already overdue for another post.
Well, I'm not perfect, but I have been diligent on logging everything I eat.
A few weeks into the year I started getting geared up to add some exercise back into my daily routine and in addition to all that this is the year we had decided to remodel our kitchen.
A nice thing happened my husband and I had thrown around the idea of trying the Half marathon in Jan 2012 as a goal to hep motivate us through out the year. About a week after making that small goal another friend of mine posted on FB that they had that same goal and after a few posts I have a new walking buddy a few days a week.
It's not easy going from sedentary to just moving again.
My knees are not my friends they tend to ache a lot, thou I really should give them a lot of credit they are still holding me up in the first place.
In Jan. I started off at 320.6 pounds and lost 21 pounds in the 1st month.
Yay, out of the 300's in a month, That is really just what I needed.
I hope that I help inspire anyone out there who is in the same boat as me.
My husband lost 46 pounds in the month, I'm still not sure why I haven't signed him up for the Biggest Loser I am sure he would make me proud, that man is a fat burning machine when he wants to be.
Well, I guess I have gone on long enough I'll try to update weekly.
Wishing you all a Magical week!
