Since January 1st, 2014 I’ve been on a journey to change my health. For at least the last 15 years of my life I’ve been obese and have never been in really good shape or had healthy eating habits. I’ve been keeping sort of a journal for myself at My Health Journey if you’re interestedContinue reading “Disappointed but more Determined”

Home Again
Last post I made near the beginning of our vacation I was pretty optimistic that I would arrive home and be at my goal weight. Things were going well. I was behaving myself when it came to eating, I had gotten out on a run and our daily activities were keeping me going. That didn’tContinue reading “Home Again”
Healthy on Vacation
Coming on vacation had me a little worried about staying in a good routine. Running would still be relatively easy if I could get myself out of bed. However eating proper had me concerned. So far that hasn’t been a problem. We’ve been packing lunches and coming back to the cottage for supper, so it’sContinue reading “Healthy on Vacation”

New Belt
Not too long ago I broke down and bought a new belt. I really didn’t want to. I’d had that belt for many years and I wanted to keep it as a reminder of how far I’ve come. It got a little ridiculous though having a huge amount of belt sticking out and flapping around.Continue reading “New Belt”
Making my way to 80
With my weigh in this morning I’ve busted over another barrier, down from 189 to 186. This puts me at 72 lbs lost since January 1st, 2014. When I hit 80 lbs lost, which is getting closer and closer, that will finally put me in a BMI of being healthy. It will still be theContinue reading “Making my way to 80”
