I am starting this blog to track and discuss health and wellness as I learn more helpful information that can help others going through the same struggles I face on this journey to become healthy mentally and physically.
Just to tell you a little about myself I’m a 26 year old female born and raised in Texas. Yes I did manage to get out of Texas for a while at the age of 21. I went to Maryland where I learned how to speak without my Texas twang and then on to Florida where I meet my fiancé a native Floridian who taught me how to finally swim. We fell in love and moved back to Texas and we'll be married in late September 2009.
Sadly it’s 50 days until my wedding and I have not loss a single pound that I had planned on losing when we got engaged back in May 2009. So here I am 5’9 weighing 275 pounds trying to Turbo Jam my way in to a size 20 Alfred Angelo wedding dress that I found a good deal on.
This has made me incredibly frustrated and I’ve decide that this is the last summer of unhealthy eating and sitting on my big butt. I have got to change what I’ve been doing and get to work now. It’s not like how some people think… Oh she’s fat so she must eat Ice Cream, Twinkies, and sit on the sofa watching TV all day. I actually don’t eat Twinkies and I have Ice Cream maybe once every other month and I go walking with my fiancé and dog quite often.
So I have decided to do some research and see what I can find out about what I’m doing wrong and what I should be doing to get my body healthy as well as my mind. This is a new passion of mine and I hope I can help others learn more about health and wellness as I get on the move!
