Well, here we are. It's Oct. 4th and I find myself pigging out on a chicken burger with "pachos". (The local fry in honeycomb form with cheese and special dipping sauce.) Normally, I would have just eaten the chili that I brought with me to work, but being that I start a detox on Tuesday, my mentality when ordering this food, was something along the lines of "better get all the crap food you can now before you start detox."
Which brings me to the reason for this blog. I have never done a blog before. I have also never done a "detox" before. I wanted to document my journey through the 5 week process. The highs and the lows. (And hopefuly not the naughty snacks along the way.) If all goes well, it will turn into a 12 month regime, which will ultimately lead me to my weight loss goal of 35 pounds.
For anyone who knows me, you know that I had a baby just over a year ago. Prior to getting pregnant, I began exercising at home, and documenting everything I ate, resulting in a weight loss of 10 pounds. During my pregnancy, I gained 50 pounds, then delivered a 10 pound baby. (Ouch!) I still have 15 pounds leftover from the pregnancy putting my total weight at 190 pounds.
I am tired of being fat. So I got myself a gym membership which is where I will be going once a week for the detox meetings and support. (As well as working out of course.)
So for anyone reading this, feel free to offer support or advice. I need to be held accountable for my actions.
