One year ago




So much has changed in one year. Last year at this time, I was overweight. I didn't think that there was anything I could do about it. I wanted to lose weight, but I didn't know how.

The second week of January 2010, I was looking at Christmas photos. It was then I saw what I really looked like. I didn't like what I was seeing. It was then I decided that I had to lose weight. No more wishing that I could. It was then I took control of my eating habits and changed my running routine. I didn't know how much I would loose. I know I just had to do it.

Almost a year later, I have lost 80 pounds. Everyday I try to watch what I eat. Sometimes I do go overboard and gain a couple of pounds. When I do gain a few extra pounds, I know that over the following days, I really have to watch what I eat. I do have a goal of losing another 8 pounds. In the new year, I'm really going to focus on that goal. I'm going to go back to how I lost my weight. Really following portion control. I want those last 8 pounds gone. If all goes well, by the end of January they will be gone.
