lose 100 pounds

this is so hard. i hate that the battle is so slow. i know the old addage “you didn’t gain the weight overnight, so you won’t lose it overnight” is true, but it’s also a pain in the ass. i went to workout yesterday, and i’ve never been more out of shape in my life. my knees hurt, my feet hurt. grr. i want to get healthy! i’ve been doing pretty great on my diet. the whole journaling thing is helping (i’m writing down everything that is going into my body), but i can’t help but wish that i looked as good as i used to. more importantly, i wish i could do the things i used to. last week, for work, we took the girls to the quarry (a rock climbing place). about 4 years ago, i went climbing quite a bit. i wasn’t great or anything, but i enjoyed it. when we went last week i could barely get the harness on…really hard to deal with…

i started back on a low carb diet today. i have started keeping a food journal and i think i like it.

so day one was a complete flop. not only did i not go to the gym, i decided it was a good night to have pizza, which made me totally sick. grrr. i’m trying again today. i went to the grocery store yesterday to stock up on things. hopefully that will help…

i’m starting the journey yet again. i think it might be easier this time, now that i know my wheat allergy. sweets are going to be hard for me to stay away from. everything else, i think i’ll be okay.
i’m headed to the gym this afternoon. hoping for an hour and a half…we’ll see.
