Baseline

Ok, so I really... really am getting tired of being overweight and more importantly being unhealthy.  I'm gonna -try- making myself a blog about this.  I'm gonna try to take a picture every day and list what I ate, if I did any exercise and how I felt that day.  If I can keep it up, maybe it'll help me, maybe it won't.  I'm not even going to say it's going to be for a long time.  I'm gonna try doing it for like... 50 days.  If I can reach that goal I'ma go for 100.  I'm not gonna weigh myself constantly, once a week, and I'll note if I was wearing clothes or if I'd already ate (like today >.>)  But some things that I'm going to do are as follows.

1. I'm not going to punish myself for having an off day.  There will be cookies.  There will be pie and pizza and days when I can't be asked to get off my ass and do anything.  That's OK.  Just pick it back up tomorrow and keep trying!

2. I'm not gonna starve myself.  I'm not gonna diet.  I'm going to try and reduce the number of calories I'm taking in and move around more.  Diets are short term and I'd like long term.  I will change my diet not go on a diet.  I need to eat more salads, more veggies, more good and less portions of the heavy duty stuff that I jam in my face constantly.

3. I'm gonna drink water!  I go in spurts drinking water.  I need to make a habit of actually getting up and filling my bottle when it gets empty, this is the one thing I -should- be hard on myself about, I shouldn't just sit there and not drink anything cus I'm too lazy or involved to go get my water, which is only 10 foot away.  There are so many things that feel better when I remember to actually get my water, I wanna feel that rather than just sit on my ass and dry out.

4.I'm gonna have a sense of humor about it!  I've got to.  I'm big, I'm fat, I'm still beautiful to my husband.  Anything beyond that last one is just things I'm doing for or to me, and I'd want to do things -for- me not -to- me.  So I'm going to laugh about this.  If I get saggy some place and it makes a funny lookin spot... OH WELL! it's funny, the hubs likes to grab my big ole belly and tickle me, I love to laugh.  LETS LAUGH ABOUT IT!

5. I'll add more if I feel I need to.  It's ok not to know the future, and I'll get there some time and I can look back and be like "This needs more"  it's cool.

Now onto day one's post.
