If you've struggled with weight loss like me ...

If you’re fine with how you look, you can skip this post. But I’ve been battling my weight almost my entire life and this year I want to do something about it. I’ve failed so many times and I wanted to figure out what I could do so that I wouldn’t fail this year.

One thing I’m doing is blogging my goals to you guys. Nothing is more motivating than a public confession that my bum is the size of Oregon. I used to be okay because my upper body wasn’t really that obviously big, but now I’ve started to squeeze out of my bras like toothpaste out of the tube, which means I can no longer delude myself.

I read The One Day Way by Chantel Hobbs, and I have to say, this was a great book to make me change my mindset for weight loss and healthy living. She really delves into the different way you have to think in order to accomplish your health goals and not give up by the end of January.

It really has helped me to make better eating choices and to exercise every day. I really needed a book like this, that explored the mental aspects of discipline, in order to be able to calm the fears that I won’t stick with a new healthy lifestyle.

So here’s hoping and praying I’ll stick with my new healthy lifestyle from here on out. Please pray for me! And if you’re struggling, too, let me know so I can pray for you!
