I was recently selected to participate in a Wellness Study at work and I am really excited to have the opportunity. In the next few weeks, I will start a 10 week exercise and diet program and will be meeting twice a week with a personal trainer. I am really energized to get healthy for my family and myself.
Today, I had to take some preliminary surveys about my eating habits and I really realized some things about myself. I am Fat & Happy...or defined as a "Happy Eater" according to the survey! I tend to eat when things are going great and skip meals under stressful, hard times. I guess that I have always known that though...When I was in high school, I went through this really weird experience with an ex-boyfriend that we will call Dan (for blogger anonymity purposes). To make a long story short, his crazy new girlfriend, that we will call Lana (again, for blogger anonymity purposes) began stalking me and going TOTALLY PHYSCHO[My friends know what I am talking about]! In one week, while the drama was full force, I lost 13 pounds! Crazy,right!!! Then again, during a very, horrible, stressful time in my life a few years back, I lost 20 pounds in a short amount of time....not a good way to lose weight at all...especially since I was losing my mind in the process too!
So with all of that being said, would I rather be stressed &thin or fat & happy? Well, the answer is NEITHER! I can no longer make excuses for my eating habits, I need to be healthy and happy...and getting healthier will make me happier! Like I said, I am so excited to be in this program...did I mention that it is all FREE?!?!?!?!
I have a treadmill now too....which doesn't look too decorative in my living room but I am determined to make this happen!
P.S.- I got the job!!!! SUPER EXCITED!!!! = )
