ENOUGH

Its been about a month since I last posted. Life has been crazy. Lately I have been struggling with a REALLY bad back andit has put limits on how much I can do. I have to face the facts. This is a wake up call. My body cannot take the weight anymore. I cannot be in pain any longer. I have noticed that I am missing out on my own life and things I enjoy and want to do because I am in constant pain. You hit a point where you just say enough. I am there.

My weight loss progress still continues but changes have to be made now that food is pretty much my gateway to losing because anything more than a moderate workout is NOT possible right now.

I talked to a couple of friends who have been sucessful at losing weight and I heard what I already know to be true. WHITE is the enemy. Avoid it at all cost. No proccessed, fast food or packaged foods. Eat clean. Take your vitamins and LOG YOUR FOOD. And last but not least drink your water. So thats what I am going to do. I need to be done with the pain that carrying around all this extra weight has to offer.

I need to be able to walk a few miles without having to ice my back and see the Chiroprator three times a week. I want to be able to sleep without waking up in pain. I want to ride bikes with my kids for miles and miles. I want to do my mini tri- and am so sad that I cannot do it this year. I want to buy normal size clothes and I want to live without this stupid pain in my back and hips 24/7.

I am so stepping it up. I am so close to being under 300. Since this whole journey I started at 328 I am making good consistant progress but I gotta get going a little more intense so I will stop this pain!!
