My Healthy Journey for Better Living

I am going to start off by saying... The doctors were right, but SSSHHHH don't tell them. They've been telling me I need to exercise more and I would hurt less. This baffled me, I didn't understand how I would hurt LESS by exercising because just sitting around doing nothing made me hurt pretty bad. Well folks, let me tell ya, I feel better than I have in years. I have more energy and stamina than I have had in about 10 years, and I am only 2 weeks into this gig. I don't have half of the the aches and pains that I used to, already. Now don't get me wrong, I have aches and pains but they were earned and I don't mind  I Must say getting healthier is one of the best decisions I have EVER MADE!

Results for 12 days of hard work and dedication:

Previous measurements/New

Waist: 42.25/40.5

Bust: 42/41.5

Hip: 44.75/44.5

Thigh: 25/25

Bicep: 15/14.5

Forearm: 12/11.5

Neck: 15.25/14.75

Previous Weight/Current

225/223.8

To sum thing up I have lost 1.2 pounds and 4" in 12 days. I am a little disaapointed with the weight loss, but I also know it takes time. Plus I didn't really start eating right until 4 days ago. With that being said, I guess I am more pleased than I origianlly thought. Hard work really DOES PAY OFF!

I have even been pro active with pre-packaging meals so they are easy to grab, heat and eat, instead of trying to figure something out. I think this will be my biggest help ever. Also, I am pretty stoked because my sister is walking with me now for 3 days a week. She isn't fat by any means,but she is out of shape. She is trying to get herself healthier so she can work on her kids. YAY!

Today is a workout day, and my youngest son is slated to go with me. Work, work, work.... but it pays off!
