194

Let's just put that number out there. 194. I need to let that sink in. I'm 5'9" or a fraction just under that height. I have never before seen that number on the scale and it scares me. My highest was 186 which was a year and a half ago when I started working out hard core to prepare for my wedding. I thought I was a lot back then, but now things are just out of hand. I refuse to get up to 200 and I know that my BMI now is 28.6, and over 29.9 is considered obese.

I'm not going to sit here and pretend I don't know how I got here - but thats for another post. I do know that this is the cold, hard, number and I need to let that really sink in so I can do something about it. It is a numbers game to some extent I believe, that I have not figured out how to control over all these years, and now its time to do so, for good, for my health, for my future. No one else will do it for me.

194. This is it.

Hello World

Hi there. This is the chronicle of my quest to lose 30 pounds before I'm 30 years old, and achieve a mental balance with my health and weight. I have found in the past that writing things down and expressing myself help me, so here I am trying a new spin on the 'get healthy' journey. It's just a place for me to be accountable to myself, and to really be able to see how I've felt and maybe what works and what doesn't.

Here we go...!
