Recap of Day 1.....

Had a great day yesterday, got some good sleep (even though it took me til three in the morning to get to sleep). Got up and had brunch (it was too late for breakfast food). Got in laundry, exercise, some blogging, found an app for my iPhone to track calories/carbs and weight loss as well as one to help log my blood sugars. Had a great dinner at Chili's Grill & Bar with David (Chicken tacos and black beans). Then went and got some more exercise at Target (Walking around the store for 45 minutes). Tomorrow, more laundry and the gym. I need to glean my iTunes for some work out playlists.

 It wasn't as overwhelming as I thought it would be. I have the tendency to take the new things in my life and blow them completely out of proportion. I had a great talk with a good friend about my new lifestyle change and was able to flush out some ideas about my plan and process.

Watching Fat Sick and Nearly Dead 2, and looking at how far I've come. To be honest, not very far, but that doesn't mean I'm going to give up on my goals...2015 is a year of 20 ' s for me. The big one being 20 years of sobriety. Over the past year I have come to the realization of my addiction to 'comfort food' and processed food. I've also dealt with a lot of health issues, from diabetes to malignant hypertension. I also live with bipolar  and PTSD and the meds I HAVE to take in order to live. A lot of us out there started on New Years resolutions on the first, today I start again on a LIFE CHANGE! When I got sober I knew it wasn't just to placate the powers that be, I wanted to change my life... almost 20 years later I'm still sober, but due to the other factors in my life, I have replaced one addiction with another... alcohol for food. So today is the first day, and with my last glass of chocolate milk I start. I'm not going to put numbers out...

Back at it again...

Like with any addiction, you can't do it on your own or without help. I'm back in the food wagon again, along with the mind and body as well. All part of my life and David's life as well, we're doing this together. I'm excited, not just about the losing of weight for vanity purposes (I'm not going to lie), but for the new life of feeling good physically and spiritually. When I saw myself in the commercial I was filmed in I cried... that was not me. I'm ready... what have I got to lose except maybe 70 lbs.
