Day 1 - Time for Change

Today is Day 1 of my weight loss journey. I have tried, very half-heartedly, over the last 3 years, but there has always been something more important to focus on but my weight. First, I had a new baby at home, then I was suffering from several mental illnesses, and then that baby had severe speech and development delays that always took more focus and attention.

My son is being diagnosed. We have a schedule, and he's receiving intervention that he needs. I can finally divert my attention away from him rather than fretting all the time.

But the real wake up call was going to my friend's wedding. My husband took pictures of me interacting with my son. I didn't recognize myself. I never saw myself as that fat, but there the proof was, right in the photo. I am unhappy with my appearance, and my stamina and health are declining.

I am 5'3" and 234 lbs. Today is day one of a journey to attempt to lose 90 lbs (at least). Wish me luck!
