update

I don't know if I have blogged on here about my diet or not....so if you don't know I am trying to get in shape and just all around feel better. I am not going to lie and say I don't want to look better as well cause I do but that is not my motivation. I just want to be healthy and have more energy. I am doing great with working out. I work out at the gym 3-4 times a week. I push myself a little bit harder everyday. Today I tried to do a 5k walk which is a little over three miles. I didn't make it the whole way but I went 2 1/4 miles. I was proud of myself and I will work my way up to that.
If only I was doing as well with the food part. I just can't seem to find things to eat that are good for me and taste good at the same time! I am really struggling with this part of it. But I have noticed that I already feel better and have more energy. I have cut out all fried foods (except on special occasions) and I don't eat sweets that much anymore. Sooner or later I have to start losing something....I am hoping anyway.

On a different note....Sunday was my 18th anniversary and I am really proud that we have made it all these years. Life is good for us! We had a great day with dinner and a movie. Eddie is my best friend and he is always very supportive of me. He encourages me with the weight loss but doesn't come down on me when I cheat. Tomorrow is a new day he tells me. I am just really blessed and I hope that I really do get the weight off for my healths sake!
I don't really have to many new pics to share right now so I will post some pictures another time.
