I can't believe I'm doing this...
Mood:  a-ok
Well...I never thought I'd do this, but I'm thinking this may help with my trying to lead a healthier life and decreasing stress. The thought of carrying around a journal to write in doesn't really appeal to me, and seeing that most of my time is spent in front of a computer, I figured "why not?". Ever since my friend, Becky, and I did the body fat test, I've known that I need to lose weight to be healthier. Sure, losing weight will help with appearances, but I'd much rather be around for my husband, Bill, and my baby boy, Sam. The guy who did the body fat test said that being overweight will cut 11 years off of your life. EEK! 11 years! I want to be a little old lady; I don't want to die fat with a bucket of chicken in my lap or something. That being said, it is so freaking hard for me to stick to a healthy eating plan. You'd think it would simple..."Quit eating!". Not for me...It's like there is a switch in my brain that is malfunctioning and it won't switch off when I'm full or when I don't need to eat something (like the bannana split I had yesterday!). So, I'm really hoping that I can vent here and, hopefully, get my emotions under control so that I can take the steps to be healthier.
