Introduction

I want to start by explaining why I'm doing this.
I'm 24 years old and out of shape. I have a son that isn't even 2 and I'm having trouble keeping up with him at times. I should be able to run around and playing all day, but at times "Mommy needs a break". It breaks my heart to know I am at this point, the point of lost hope and tears. I hate my weight issue and I'm tired of dealing with it. Ive tried crash diets, fad diets and we can't forget the famous yo yo diets. Ive never done diet pills, and never plan on it. I can workout really well for a few days, then I rest for a week...not a good way to loose weight. I live in Utah, were everyone is fit and loves being outdoors. I'm originally from Ohio, were outdoor activities don't exist and we go out to eat when we want to get together with friends! Being here in Utah has given me the desire I needed to loose weight. There are skinny cute moms, and they jog with their kids in the morning, and some family activities including hiking, skiing, doing a 5k...blah blah blah...you get the picture! My family, we like being outdoors but after an hour or 2...we are tired worn out and go home and watch tv, while eating!

Ive decided to give myself a 30 day challenge. I have everything I need here at home to loose the weight, I just need to throw out the excuses! Easier said then done~
I'm not going to give myself a weight that I want to get down to...but I will say loosing 10lbs in a month would be wonderful. I want to be healthy and happy. Weight is just a number, nothing more, but being healthy is a lifestyle and something I need to reach for.

Each day I will post my weight, BMI, and what workouts I did, or will be doing.
I will also be keeping a food journal, and may add a few entries on here...
I will blog about how hard it is to stay away from the cupcake I want, or the mint chocolate chip ice cream I'm craving. Becoming healthy is going to be hard for me, I love sweets, junk food, and sitting around.

Workouts will include my Wii Fit, EA Active, Ab Roller, and a few other things, that are done with things around the house!

With that all being said, its time to workout and get going on things!
