Summer is in full swing here and I am working so hard . . . . at being healthier. Twenty-four months ago I began this journey and it has ebbed and flowed like the oceans. I'd push my self hard and my body would push back even harder. I lost nearly 100 lbs. but when I hit my first plateau my body pushed back and added 15 lbs. When I'd make changes to my diet or routine my body would compensate and reward me with nothing. Those blessed with the metabolism of a race horse have no clue how hard it is to lose weight and eat right - especially when you truly enjoy food. My friends can eat ANYTHING and still maintain their weight but I have to be careful, especially as I get older. I decided it is time to make a really positive change and make a concerted effort to exercise. My goal is to be lean and I know I can achieve this goal but it is going to be a lot of work. It isn't about vanity, well maybe some vanity, but it is about being healthy and living long while being happy with myself. I will push myself as hard as I can to achieve this goal and when I hit it I will reward myself by sharing some pictures here and getting that body sleeve my tattoo artist keeps talking to me about.
