What an amazing story! You're great inspiration!
A group of individuals who want to loose the weight and be the healthy beings that God created us to be!
This group is for those who are doing, want to do, or have finished the Couch to 5K program.
Hey Janie---I totally understand how you feel. And I think it's awesome that you want to train for a race! Do it!!! I'm personally not a runner-yet...maybe I can change that some day. But I really think it will help the whole process if you have som…
What an AMAZING accomplishment you've done! Congratulations!!! Great inspiration!
Profile Information
- About Me:
- My name is Barbie and I'm a 24 yr old stay-at-home mom and wife. I also work part-time from home which is such a blessing. My goal in starting a blog is to have a community to help me change my life. I want to be comfortable in my own skin and not feel ashamed when I walk past a mirror. I'm tired of sitting on my butt "wishing" I was someone else. I'm Barbie for a reason and it's up to myself to change my current condition.
I've always been the "thicker" girl. I'm 5'6 and the smallest I remember weighing was 137lbs in the 9th grade. I stayed around 140ish through out high school, and gained around 10 lbs going into college. I remember my friend's dad made me cry when he put his finger under my chin(double chin) and said " Oh...I see someone's gained a little weight." That's the first time I ever felt "fat". I was always comfortable with my body and didn't understand how these girls who were smaller then me were obsessed with being even smaller. And from there the weight has slowly added on---5 lbs here and there. Then in the fall of 2008 I found out I was pregnant with my daughter Addison.
I went crazy when I was pregnant and gained WAY too weight. Like 45 extra pounds. And so here I am-at 194lbs. I managed to do WW for one week(last fall) and lost 6lbs, but then I got busy with work/taking care of Addison and never made an effort on myself again.I'm ready for all the small victories and defeats that will come with changing my life style. I don't want to go on a diet-I want to put into action all the information I know about healthy eating.And I refuse to let another month go by and not try to change.I want to be a good role model for my daughter, and teach her about how heath is so important.
I want to be ME again...

Starting Over
I've come to a point in my life where I no longer recognize the woman staring back at me. For the first time in my life I'm willing to tell the whole world I have a problem and I need help. I need accountability. I need to be healthy again. Hopefully joining this blog will give me the support I need to make some MAJOR life changes. I hate running...God didn't make me to run. Or maybe its just my mindset that's stopping my from hitting the pavement. I'm ashamed to go to the gym because I hate bei… Continue
