Confession

OK, so for the past month I have been dealing personally with my weight. As a full time Store Manager, Full time mom, full time wife and part time student at BCCC I just can't seem to find the time for me to go work out. In the evenings I get home and cook dinner, then clean dinner up, play with my children, give thems baths, read them a book then put them to bed. By this time it is 9 pm after straightening up our house and before I head to bed at 10 I try to spend quality time with my husband. I seem to have a very hard time of getting up earlier then usual so I can work out so I decided I had to approach loosing my weight a different way. Last week I went to the dr.'s to talk to them about loosing the weight and they told me about this weight loss pill that they could prescribe me to help me. I figured I might as well give it a shot, I obvisouly CAN'T do it by myself and definatly need the help. So I picked up my prescription this morning and took my first pill. I had so much energy by 1 that I felt like I could have ran a 5 mile marathon, lol. It felt great! Mentally...that fact that I am taking this diet pill to help me helps too. I went online and googled "weight loss tracking" and came upon fitday.com. I love this website!! I was able to go on there and put my current weight and my goal weight by Feb. and it let me know right then what I needed to loose per week to achieve my goal. I felt so motivated after seeing that I only need to loose 2 lbs per week. I can do this...I know I can. The website also has ways for me to track my foods that I eat per day and break it down into the calorie intake. It also lets me track my activities for each day calculating how much calories I burnt vs. ate.

I know some people think diet pills are bad, so that's why I went to my dr. to do it the healthy way. I had to...my self esteem was going down the drain FAST! I needed to share this with all of you as my family and friends because it is healthy for me to. I couldn't keep my weight issues a secret anymore. Talking about this feels great and I will def keep you all posted on my weight loss.

WISH ME LUCK!!
