No one else's struggle is my struggle. I accept who I am, what I have become and I want nothing more in this world than to become the person I want to be. The person I was meant to be all along.
Today (1/29/2024) is day one of my journey. Weighing in at 289lbs, I am not proud to admit that this is more than I weighed 9 months pregnant and more than I have weighed in over 12 years.
Today I am 2 days sober. Not that I haven't gone more than 2 days without a drink before. Sometimes a go a week or 2 without a drink but that's about as long as I have gone before giving in to temptation. Today, I am challenging myself to a 28 day challenge. To record the differences I can see, and in 28 days, reflect and challenge myself again.
I feel like it is important for me to set small achievable goals. Every small win counts. I am also going to reward myself for making good decisions and staying committed to my plan and my goals.
GOALS:
1. Lose weight- by making healthier food choices, recommitting to a gym routine, not drinking calories (focus on drinking at least 100oz of water per day).
2. Stay Sober- by reminding myself how terrible drinking makes me feel physically and mentally, finding alternatives to calm my mind when I'm feeling overwhelmed and anxious.
3. Find at least 30 minutes a day for myself- reading, working on my blog, cooking, doing a facial. Anything that i can do just for me.
