Motivated

It's no secret that I'm fat. I hate it but I am. To be honest, after I quit LA Weight Loss I gained back everything I lost plus 40 pounds and that depresses me. When I was at my old weight I always felt like a cow and after looking at pictures yesterday from that time, I found myself saying, "God, I wish I looked like that again."

Then I read Anna Marie's blog, Metamorphosis, and it totally inspired me. I wanted to get back into an exercise routine like I once did. Last August and this past February I signed up for this fitness program for women called Adventure Boot Camp..let me tell you that was the best decision I made. Granted, it's too expensive for me to keep on going every month but everything I learned from it was priceless. So, I asked Adam if he wanted to go running with me last night when he got off work and he did so we went! We decided for the rest of this week to start off slow (we'll go again tomorrow and do another mile) but next week we'll go 3 days a week and try to do at least 1 mile and then starting Monday I'm going to jump into doing the 30 Day Shred.

Losing weight isn't just a goal anymore, it's going to happen, along with getting myself to eat better. Thanks to all the girls on the NBC board, I feel so confident that I won't give up.

  1. Awww :) You give me too much credit!

    I totally know what you mean about looking back at old photos where you remember feeling your heaviest and thinking 'dang, I looked good there!'. That SUCKS. Sometimes they're motivating, but then sometimes I just feel like I'll never get back to that. kwim?

  2. You can do it, Crystal. I just set forth on my adventure into weight loss again and it's hard. I got on the elliptical last night and realized what a fat ass I am. Keep pushing on, though!
