Losing Weight

Okay, so it's time that I face reality and recognize that I am completely, obviously over-weight! I mean, I was "fat" when I weighed 125 pounds at age 21!! So, what happened? Let me be honest here... I don't know what happened. I honestly feel like I eat the same way I always have. I actually eat less now than before. Is that the problem? Maybe my metabolism slowed down... I don't know! I have tried staying active... jogging, using the stairs instead of elevators, going to the gym... but the weight is still there. I have not gained anymore weight in a while, which is a good thing, but I am not losing any either, which is bad! So I decided it's time for a change! I bought a new scale so I can weigh myself and note my progress. I bought low-calorie yogurts to snack on. I even switched to 2% milk instead of whole milk! I bought a box of Special K cereal to go along with my 2% milk... I even bought a reusable water bottle, 32 oz. to have at my desk so I can drink water throughout the day. I need to do this for myself... for my health... for my future! I hope I can make the necessary changes, eat healthier and become more physically active. I will keep you posted on my progress. I know this will be hard, and it will take time to reach my goals... but I know that I can do it!! This is not a "diet"... it's a "lifestyle change" for the better! :)
