I know I have talked about my Wheel of Life Tree and how I am using it to work on myself, so I figured I would talk a bit about the health and fitness part of my plan. I want to give a little back story, outline my goals, and use this as a platform to keep myself motivated. As long as I am blogging, I am probably better served if I am also getting motivation out of it as well 😉
Okay, here it goes, the about me part. I have been a very unhealthy girl in the past who thought or did little with regards to changing my unhealthy ways. At one time, I weighed nearly 230 lbs, which was definitely not a good thing on my 5’5″ frame. I had had two children and blamed my weight on baby weight gain. I forget to add in the fried foods, fast foods, and other generally unhealthy stuff in my diet. I am not saying I didn’t eat fruits and veggies; however, there was no focus on nutrition what-so-ever. There was no focus on exercise either. Add to that cigarettes and occasional alcohol and, well, you get my point, I was in sad shape.
Luckily, I was in my 20’s and had time to implement change if only I could see change was necessary. I had no thought of change back then. Sure, I did all of the fad diets, but didn’t have the strength to stick to anything. I would always revert back to my old ways.
