Starting Stats

I am committing myself to being a "Before" for the last time in my life. I know that I am going to make mistakes, I know that I have to admit those mistakes before I can grow in this journey. I am going to learn from my mistakes and not give up or belittle myself for eating ice cream after dinner. I am not going to beat myself up when my calories are in the red at the end of the day. So what? Tomorrow is a new day, I can work out harder to make up for that splurge. Enough ranting and on to what everyone wants to know.

I am fighting with myself as I write this whether or not I want to publish this post. I have never been so vulnerable about myself in such a public setting. I dated my last boyfriend for over three and a half years and he did not know these things about me. So I am emotionally stripping myself down to bare bones here, I hope that this can inspire one other person to start on a journey of loving their body and taking back their healthy.

I plan on writing a further out goal blog post for distant goals, but this is as good of an outlet as any to talk about my "Goal Weight." I would like to lose 46 pounds and weigh 150 pounds. That seems like such a huge number, and I cannot imagine what I will look like when I reach that goal, but I cannot wait to find out.
