Ok, So far I only have one main goal. Don't get me wrong there are SEVERAL areas of my life I feel the need to change/ or improve, but there is only one area that I have a set direction for. I want, no, I NEED to lose weight. Right now i am in between a size 16 and 18. Granted I am also 5'11, so i can carry my weight relatively well, but i still want to lose it. I will put in exact numbers when I have them (which will be when I get back to the states in about a week). Where I want to be. Ideally a size 2, but i want this to work so i am going to be more realistic. At this point I will be ecstatic with a size 8. When i get there i will re-asses.
One thing to Always remember when you are trying to change something about yourself, whether it be career, weight, hair color, class, whatever. DO IT FOR YOU!!! Now i would lie if I said i didn't think losing the poundage wouldn't help me get this guy i really like (i will do a post about him later). But in the end it has to be for me or i wont stick to it. When taking on something that is going to be difficult (it sure as hell isnt easy) you have to yearn for it, you have to do just more than want it. It needs to be something you can dedicate your mind and body too and over come every obstacle that hits you. To help with that i am reading a book that gives some great motivation. Secrets of a Former Fat Girl by Lisa Delaney. http://www.amazon.com/Secrets-Former-Fat-Girl-Sizes--/dp/0452289246/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1290427219&sr=8-1
I am not done with the book, but so far its given some great tips and tricks that my next post will briefly outline. This book is NOT just another diet book, it doesn't outline everything you eat for the next 4 months of your life. This book addresses more the psychological strengths it will take to make it to a Former Fat Girl. I STRONGLY recommend picking it up. Well worth it.
