The Incredible Transformation of GeeGee

For the last two week I have been successfully counting calories and monitoring my eating. I feel it is time for the next step- incorporating fitness/exercise. I am more than ready to regain my life but most importantly...to really start living. I don't want to sound like the cliche overweight girl, and although I truly do admire those that are happy regardless of their size, I am just unhappy with my weight. I feel that the true measure of self-love is one's willingness to truly make the necessary changes to improve one's life. I know that by losing this excess weight I will be doing just that. I will be adding years to my life, lowering my cholesterol (which was borderline the last time I checked) and overall improving my health. I owe it to myself to love myself enough to be at best. I want to be the best for me. I am really looking forward to using a blog for my weight loss since I have NEVER done this before (perhaps out of embarrassment. It is one thing for me to admit to myself I have a problem, but to admit it in writing to possibly the world is something else!). Nonetheless, I think blogging will be really therapeutic so I am looking forward to sharing how I feel, even if I am the only one that reads it.
