Well, here's the thing. I'm 24 years old. Overweight, and sick of it.
I've recently moved back to California which is where I grew up. The last 5 years I was living up in Provo, Utah for school. I graduated in May with my BA in Deaf Studies Education with a teaching credential for Secondary ASL as a foreign Language. I'm actually teaching as a Deaf Ed teacher in the High School I graduated from in 2008! It's been a trip to be back here.
Here's the reason why I decided to blog. Since my freshman year of High School I've gained about 100 pounds. I've gained and lost and gained some more, and lost a little and gained and lost and gained and lost. This has been my life story since high school. I feel like this is the new chapter of my life, and i want it to be good. I just graduated from college, started my career, and it's just TIME.
The move has been really hard on me, and I have gotten back into some BAD habits. At this point, I haven't weighed myself in about a month. I don't even want to get on the scale. I'm devastated at where I am at with my health- but that's why I'm here. I have to get started. I am motivated to keep this blog up and share with you guys everything I am going through. In a year from now I can't wait to look back and see how far I've come.
I'm planning to start Weight Watchers. Again. It will only be the 4th time I've joined, don't worry about it. but I am going to make this time the LAST time. I am joining and I am going to go to every meeting and stay focused. I am motivated to be the change.
I guess that's it for this first post. I'll be posting a before picture, and some reasons why I want to lose weight. Cheers to the next part of life!
