Back to the Weight Watch

I have been silent about this for a while. I hate discussing it with myself let alone friends but here we go.

I have always struggled with weight. I know where my problems are. Overcoming them though that is different. There is a lot of bad habit and a little physcological stuff to overcome. I even studied Health in College to help me. But the weight crept back in.

I have started running again. I used to be a runner. I ran an hour a day in Highschool. I have struggled with it since. But Thanks to Wii fit and my family I have started again. (A sidenote about wii fit. It can be a little insulting but in a funny way). I know you say running in place is not the same as running. True but it is not sitting either. It actually is a great workout and one that hopefully will build muscle so that I can run again.

So here I am trying to be accountable again. I am not secure enough to weigh myself regularly. I am just going to do my BMI test regularly, exercise every day and eat less. Rob and I started a no sugar month where we just are not eating sugar. It has been hard but I find myself craving it less.

I SO hear you on this one. In fact, I just went and got running shoes tonight. I did 10 min. of ab work the other day and was incredibly sore for 3 days straight. It is so easy to get discouraged--but it's worth the effort in the end.
