Ok so I'm thinking I need to chronicle my weight loss/struggles/insane wedding stress. I was doing so well..before student teaching started up for this year. I was hitting the gym, had stopped drinking pop at work, stopped the merciless drive thru runs. But then I fell off the band wagon. Now I'm hitting up McDonalds for the morning Ice Coffee and chugging Coke on my breaks at work.
I'm a year and a few weeks away from being married, and I'm not happy with the way I am. I wake up, and clothes that were starting to be loose are now tight again, and that's depressing. One of my big problems is the emotional eating. I have a bad day, and I buy a bag of chips. If a customer got under my skin I'd buy a fancy chocolate bar and eat it away. If I suffered from the sadly frequent bouts of random depression a Quarter Pounder was my first stop.
I need to stop giving into the cravings. I need to start making the smart desisions. I'm hoping this blog helps to keep me on track.
I guess the first thing I need to do is set a goal. Or goals.
I weigh 220 right now. By the end of the summer I want to have dropped 10 pounds. That's not so crazy is it?
Short term...
No more soda. No more impromptu fast food drive thru runs. MORE WATER.
Ok. I can do this. I think I can take care of the no pop thing. I'm hoping tea can be an acceptable substitute :P Because I am quite the tea whore!
Ok internet, here I go.
