Looking back through my sporadic posts, I realize how many times (documented and undocumented) I have planned to live a healthy lifestyle only to fall off the wagon after a week or so. I have to say that it's a real bummer to think about how healthy I could be now had I followed through and kept all of my promises to myself. I am so excited (and very lucky) because I have been given an opportunity that I know only comes once in a lifetime. I am participating in a research study and part of the study is to complete the State of Slim program. The program is a 16 week course and I attend a one hour class each week and weigh in. There are three phases and the first is the toughest and then the next two get progressively easier. I am required to work out 6 days a week at intervals that increase weekly. I want this to be the last time I write one of these "starting over" posts. I don't want to be doing this again in three years. To be quite frank, I don't know that my body will let me live this way for much longer. So, here we go!!
I will keep y'all posted as things progress. Here's to moving onward and upward! Remember to "choose your hard!"
