Profile Information

My BodyPROUD Story: I've always struggled with my weight. I've tried many diets and programs. I'm great at starting, not so great at finishing.

I woke up this morning feeling like a slug! Not happy with where I am at in my personal life and absolutely not happy with my appearance.

It finally hit me, if I'm not happy with me, how can I possible be happy the same me + 1. Nothing would have changed. I would have put my focus elsewhere and filled my life up with something that I thought would make me happy.

As shocked as I was to finally get this at 37 years of age and 50lbs in excess of my real dreams, I decided to join Body Proud. I've been surfing BP for months, too afraid to post anything, let alone my pictures.

SO, today I have committed to posting my journey. I'm ready to see and feel changes. The biggest step for me was joining BP and sharing my story. This time I know I will do it. Baby steps!

My Facts 'n Stats:: Current weight: 180lbs
Height: 5'5"
Mood: sad and scared, not depressed, although embarrassed that I am where I am.

My bodyPROUD Goals:: Today, I'm cleaning out my fridge and stocking up on clean food. Also going to purchase the new clean eating cookbook by Tosca Reno, for more tips.
I'm going to plan my first week of getting off the couch and get moving activities.
I'm excited, although nervous.
Off the the store I go....................

My bodyPROUD Intentions:: Increase My Confidence, Improve my Health, Gain More Flexibility, Increase My Strength, Keep Me Young, Feel Better about Myself, Feel Good in a Bathing Suit

To Become BodyPROUD, I commit to do the Following:: Today is April 28th 2011.
My timeframe is April 1st 2012. The April fools joke will be for all the people who have said I can't do it, it's genetic etc.....

My plan:
* start eating clean! (cleaning out fridge today and stocking up on clean foods and snacks
* start eating breakfast everyday!!!
* eat every 2-3 hours

Workout plan:
* workout in the mornings (I have every excuse in the book not to do it after work)
* start out with 30 mins of cardio a day then increase
* weight train three days per week
* start with sets of 15-20 reps for each body part
* change it every two weeks so I don't get bored
* 3 yoga classes to help with stress

Please Help ME with:: Everything and anything I can to help me in my journey.
