Since Tuesday this week I have decided to lose weight. Since I gained about 35 pounds this past year, and I hadn't even noticed until I looked at myself in the mirror and didn't like what I saw, my stomach always hurts or its bloated and of course I weighed myself and realized how much weight I had gained. So far I have cut my portions in half and I only eat salads at night. I also cut down my carb intake such as completely eliminating pastries and candy, and cutting down my breads.
Of course I am doing this to look better but mostly I am doing this to feel better. Working out, being more active.
At times, i have made the excuse that I eat junk because I am broke, and sometimes it has been true, but only because I didn't know how to eat healthy on a budget. Now I am learning this, and being more conscious of what I put into my body, and less Lazy in taking the time to take care of myself, because right now I am not suffering as much as I could possibly suffer later in my life, the consequences of eating junk.
This is my time to change, grow, and learn.
