Day 1 of my 24 Day Challenge is in the books. I am not looking back on the fact that if I had stuck with it and made a lifestyle change last year I would not be sitting here the same size when I started last year.
So today was the first day of the rest of my life. I am changing my lifestyle. I am tired of being overweight to the point that I will do whatever it takes to not be that way anymore. I want to lose the weight and be healthy and fit for ME. No one else but ME. I'm focusing on doing what is best for ME. And while I know that sounds selfish if I don't I will be sitting here a year from now worse off than I am now.
So for those friends that I dine with frequently, please do not be offended if I would rather eat at home for now. I know I'm human and I will slip up. I am prepared for that but for now this is what I need to do.
So as my family and friends (if you are reading this), I ask you for support and prayers in this endeavor. I feel better now than I have in years since I had my surgery and I know it is a time for a change. If I don't do it now nothing will ever change. Plus I am terrified of weight gain associated with menopause.
I have faith in God and in myself that I can and will do this.
Love to all!
