I am normally not a blogger,but I think posting things on this site will help me in the weight loss battle by making me more conscious of what i’m doing everyday. I don’t feel too motivated to hop on the treadmill today but I will do it anyway. This is a big change for me; in the past I would say “screw it” to myself and just give up and forget it. That would then put me into a pattern of feeling depressed and things would continue downward from there and before I knew it,I would not have exercised for a long time,then making me feel even more depressed,like a vicious cycle. That in turn would make me want to eat whatever the hell I want,continuing the negative cycle. So on that note, I’m getting off here and doing it.

I started walking on the treadmill about 2 months ago in order to start feeling better. A visit to the doctor and a 17 lb. weight gain in the last year was the trigger that made me start exercising again. I’ve been doing it 3-4 times a week;trying to do at least 1.5 miles and gradually working up to 2 miles. I feel physically better,more energetic and feel less depressed about my weight in general. I refuse to weigh myself; in the past doing that,even just once a week,made me too frustrated and I would quit within a couple of months after starting a diet. Now I’m focusing on feeling better and improving my health overall,not the number of pounds. I haven’t changed my eating habits a whole lot; I figure I’ll do this one step at a time. I am more conscious of what I’m putting into my mouth in general,and have made some better choices here and there and feel somewhat satisfied with that. I have a major problem with eating sweets;otherwise I am not a hideous eater. I don’t eat much fast food(hardly ever) and not alot of salty things like chips,nachos,etc. I do like butter on my potatoes and bread,which I know is bad,but I’m trying to eat smaller am’ts of those things. I have been trying to eat more fruit and protein instead of cookies,etc., but I have not cut the sweets out altogether. I feel angry or deprived if I can’t eat my favorite things. If I do this in moderation and don’t look at this as a “diet” I will do better in the long run.
