Health and Honesty

So this past week I have been feeling really under the weather. So much so that on Friday night, my husband got so worried that he took me to the ER. It was totally DUMB as sometimes I feel like an idiot for making my husband worry - but atleast they said I wasn't dying.

Anyway. Even though I know it was probably allergy related as the weather has been WONDERFUL but filled with guk, I have finally come to the epiphany that I really need to lose weight. Like NOW. Here's the thing. I have never really been self concious or whatever you call it, about my weight - but seriously... it's time!

So the hubs and I are going to clean out our kitchen - completely - and get rid of 98% of the junk that is invading our health. Why 98%? Well cause every now and then you need a little something. So we are going to work on that this weekend and really start a fresh.

We have a treadmill and a weight bench (with free weights) along with medicine balls/bands that we will be using. We are going to re-do our little exercise room and get it in gear so that we can start our Biggest Loser journey. (ok.. so our exercise area doesn't really look like this, but I will take a pic and show you later)

I believe that I want to lose atleast 60 lbs by our fifth anniversay (March 4,2011) which is about 5 months away. I mean if I am being honest here, I really need to lose weigh (way) more than that, but I have to start with a solid number.

We are going to walk after work everyday. Eat healthier (more portion controlled) meals and then work out in the mornings (UGH!!!!). Right now if you tried to wake me up early, you would probably get punched in the face! I am not a morning person, but I know that it probably has to do with the fact that I am overweight. If I was not overweight, then I would probably wake up singing Good Morning, Good Morning!!!!!

So enough of the big talk and no action. It's TIME!

Right On!

Adri.
