The journey of a thousand miles....

Today is the day I decided that I'm done being fat & unhealthy, and I've decided to actively change that. I'm tired of waking up and craving soda and fatty foods. I know it's going to be hard, but I KNOW I can do this..

I plan on taking it day by day, until weeks go by, and then months... And before I know it, I'll be skinnier and healthier. I'll be able to run around with my kids and do more than I can do now.

I quit soda cold turkey yesterday.. Not sure how that's going to turn out. I have a serious 4 soda a day habit, with Code Red Mountain Dew being my drink of choice. I bought tons of flavored seltzer water and am going to drink that instead.

I'm trying to watch my portion sizes, and am drinking water all day to trick myself into feeling full.

I don't plan on posting tons of updates on my journey in this Blog, but I will post sporatic updates just to keep everyone posted. My idea is that once I put it in writing here on this Blog, i'm going to (hopefully) feel more motivated to actually accomplish my goals!
