Deemaxie's Journal, 07 October 2008

Today was a big step for me to sign up for this online community. Since I am an only child, I always feel that I have to depend solely on myself. I realized over the summer when I was involved in a weight loss and fitness challenge the importance of having people who care about you to motivate and encourage you. I want to lose the weight for several reasons. First and most importantly, I have a family history of diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease and I don't want to experience any of those health issues. Secondly, I have a four-year old that I want to play with without getting tired or winded. And lastly, I want to look great in my clothes and naked. I have always liked to wear fitted outfits and you just can't do that with rolls. So today, I make a commitment to eat healthier, record what I eat, exercise regularly, share my challenges and my triumphs with other members. Always have an encouraging word for others on this weight loss journey and just try to have as much fun as possible.

A lot has happened since October 2008. I have been laid off twice (Oct. 08/April 2010. I got separated and went through a divorce. I had to short-sale my home but I am still here. The good news is that I have gotten another job, moved to another place (renting), my oldest daughter graduated from college (May 2010). My weight is actually 201 lbs. as of May 14, 2011. I joined WeightWatchers this past weekend and I have been working out also. My goal is to lose 63 lbs. by December. I will be finished graduate school and I just want to live a healthy lifestyle and not be on any type of medication and be able to keep up with my 7 year old daughter.
