My first post...woohoo. My first blog, my first journal entry...hell, I haven't had even a diary since elementary school. Hopefully this will be helpful. Here's my freaking story....
I am 40 years old (DEAR GOD, REALLY? NO SHIT?) Anyway, not only is that sad and depressing in itself, I am also 40 and FAT. They say everyone has their moment when they say enough is enough, and I pray to God that this is my moment.
Why MIGHT this be my moment, you ask? Why MIGHT it be different this time? Well, possibly because I simply refuse to hit 200 pounds. I am at 197.5. If not now, when? And the way my weight jumps around, I could hit 200 tomorrow. But I will not. Oh, and by the way, I am 5'2.
I am sick of whining, bitching and MOANING about my weight. (Thus the name No Moan Sloan...duh!) :) I am ready to DO SOMETHING. My first "something" was weighing this morning. Next, I googled "Best Weight Loss Blogs" and have spent the last hour reading some very inspiring and motivational words. Next, I decided to create a blog of my own. And what I am planning on doing next scares the absolute crap out of me. I plan on attending a Weight Watchers meeting TODAY. I have never been to one, but I know I could use the support. I am also going to join a gym. Again, TODAY.
I hope to make some friends (how do I do this on here???) and hope I will have others walking this journey with me. I will check in later and let you know how my MEETING and THE GYM went!
No Time To Moan,
Sloan
Best of luck at WW! You will LOVE the blogging community. So much support here. I will be checking back to see how you are doing! I have been a WW member for 10 years--it's a fabulous program--if you WORK IT. PS--40 is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteMIMI...I love you! :) You're my first comment! How freakin' exciting! So new to this..a little nervous, but you just made my day! It's amazing how much energy I feel just from writing out the fact that I'm ready to do something wonderful for MYSELF! Thanks for checking in. I can't wait to read your blog as soon as I get supper ready and can kick back for the night. Have a great evening! Oh, and I agree....40 CAN BE fantastic. It's not the number...it's how you feel.
