One month, a few extra lbs.

Day One

This is me. For those of you who know me personally, I don't need to tell you I'm Katy. Now, I know this may be egotistical, but I think I'm a very pretty girl. :]

That being said, there's something about this picture that needs to change and, you may have guessed it, it is my weight. Now a lot of people over the span of my years of being over-weight have told me I was beautiful the way I was. If you'll look in the first paragraph, you'll know even I think that's true.

But let's not kid ourselves, America. I am the face of the unhealthy. I am the very portrait of obesity and the health problems that come with it. All of that being said...

 

It's time for a real change. So.

For the next week I am eating better. No fried Chick Fil A, heart be still... No more sodas, had my last one this afternoon after stopping for a while last year. I invested in some of those maybe awful for you "lean" frozen dinners and instead of eating two at one sitting only plan on eating one. I will work out every day. I will eat more greens, more fruits and vegetables and less oatmeal cream pies and snack-packs. I will drink water, water with lemon, water with ice and hold the sweet tea.

For one week I am not cheating, I am not bending my own rules... I'm doing this thing.

So these pictures, this is day one. I'll take another one day 7, next Sunday. I can't promise there will be a physical difference and really that's not even what I'm looking for.

I want to feel better. Feel healthier. Feel accomplished.

In one week I will have an update and then, you know, probably get back to talking about Christmas and New Years and Mission Trip and all the fun stuff.

So bloggers, wish me luck!

Say Goodbye, Bloggers.
