Spring has Sprung.

Spring has sprung and it is time for new beginnings. In order for a new beginning there must an end to an old one. Something must stop, something must go away. Well I'm thinking it is time for part of me to go away, specifically MANY unwanted and unhealthy pounds.

I have made a decision to give Boot Camp a try. No I'm not joining the military but I am going to join what seems like an army of people who are changing their lives in some drastic ways. Losing unwanted weight, becoming healthier, looking better, and feeling better about themselves.

Last night a met the man behind the whole thing. I don't know if I have met somebody who is as excited about what he does in a long while. It felt like he cared if I succeeded. Working with patients all of the time I know the initial report is important. I trust him. I was met with no judgement. I do that to myself often. expect judgement when there is none there. The truth is I am the one unhappy with my weight. I am the one unhappy with not being able to keep up with my 2 year old son. I am unhappy with tighter pants, and popping buttons. Having to buy long or tall shirts not because I am THAT tall but because they are what covers that big UGLY gut.

Next week it starts. Hopefully the beginning of the end. Mondays and Wednesdays 4:30 to 5:30 I'm boot camping. In addition to the what will be the introduction of intentional exercise into my routine I have started watching my calories. With my recent movement into the world of smart phones. I have downloaded this handy little app called lose it!. Interestingly enough I am allowed to have a MINIMUM of 2565 calories. In tracking so far I can manage that. I eat that much and I am not hungry.

Thanks for stopping by!
