Finding Me: The How, The Why and The When.

Finding Me: A Weight Loss Journey began as an outpouring of my goal to lose the weight that I had regained and to hopefully help others who are looking for some aid in some way.  Someone who has been there and done that!  Someone who has tried all the diets and failed.  Someone who refuses to give up!  Is that you?  I am a teacher at heart and find it a natural thing to want to pass on the things that I learn and find that work.  I hope that this blog and these posts will find a resting place in your heart & mind!

Let me give you a quick overview of my How, Why & When, because I'll come back and expound on each later.

Let me start with the HOW:
How am I losing the extra pounds this time around?  I am following a Low Carb/ High Fat diet.  I am drinking a LOT of water.  (I mean a L.O.T.) And I am doing some exercise 4-5 times a week.

WHY am I doing this, yet again:
I have a child.  I have a husband.  I have my own life to live ahead of me and I can do it so much more successfully when I can move and breathe and live it to the full!

WHEN are we talking about:
I am currently doing this.  I started my Low Carb/ High Fat lifestyle again on January 2nd.  This is not a diet to me now, it is a lifestyle.  My husband has joined me in eating this way, so it is easier.  Another WHEN is when do I want to lose the weight... What time frame am I looking at?  I'll share that in an upcoming post.

Decide on your own parameters.  Your HOW?  HOW are you going to accomplish your weight loss?  Your WHY?  WHY are YOU doing this?  WHEN are you going to start?  And other goals that you may have and set them down on paper.  Maybe even make yourself an inspiration board, like we did in our Support Group as the first Challenge for this year.
