My journey to getting healthy...

HELLO!

I'm so excited to start this new blog for everyone. Here I will be writing about all the different obstacles I've had to face while trying to lose weight. All the ups and even all the downs. I won't be shy. I will even tell you when I am thinking of giving up(those times do come).

Every Sunday I will "weigh in" and share those results. Every first of the month I do weigh in AND measurements and I will share those as well.

I will also be sharing all the products I have tried, if I liked them or not, if they worked or not. They will come with pictures so you will know what to look for if/when you decide to buy them.

I'll post new exercises that I try, and of course I liked them or not, if they were easy or hard to do, even how sore I was the next day LOL!

I want people to know exactly what I go through during my process. This is really hard. It's not an easy thing to do. And there have been times where I almost gave up. Just recently I went almost 3 months with no gym time and not eating my best. I actually have gained 10lbs!! Very embarrassing, but this week I rededicated myself and have gotten back on track.

I want people to comment, share your blogs, share your thoughts, ideas, tips, everything! Let's keep each other motivated!!

You will find a LOT of my pictures about weight loss and being healthy on my instagram. User name: bunca088

Let me tell you where I started.

April 2012 I was at 278lbs, I had high blood pressure, and never had energy to play with my two boys. I was considered morbidly obese and was depressed. It was a very hard time. My husband kept trying to push me into starting getting healthy for myself. No he didn't ever call me fat, he was actually fine with my weight. He just got tired of seeing me cry myself to sleep at night!! Which I don't blame him for. And of course he was scared for my health.
But no matter how many times he tried talking to me it never worked. I eventually realized this was something I had to decide on my own and do this for myself!
I then got a membership with Curves and started a 10 Day Cleanse(AdvoCare). Within that first 10 days I lost 5lbs and felt more energized. The exercising came easier and easier but the eating was the hardest part for me. To this day it's the hardest part(even though it's gotten a LOT easier). The best part was within 2 months my blood pressure was back to normal without the use of any prescription drugs!!

I got down to 226.8(that was this past March), but since I stopped working hard this past few months I am now back to 236.9.

I want you to be there with me during my journey!! Every day I get asked many questions from people wanting tips and help. I thought this blog may help!! :)

I hope everyone enjoys!

Here is my latest "progress pic".
