It has been 9 months since I signed up here and 12 months since our little man was born. I honestly forgot about BabyFit. I wish I hadn't, because I so badly needed to stay accountable. Life has thrown some huge surprises at our family and the stress of it all put us in a tailspin. We have realized more than ever the importance of our faith. God has kept us from completely going over the edge. As we are struggling to find a new normal, I have noticed myself feeling more and more uncomfortable in my own skin. Although I stopped tracking my food and my workouts became farther and farther apart, I didn't see what was happening. Full realization hit only the other day as I took photos with my family in what I thought was a pretty outfit. The pictures told the truth, though. And so did my scale, which doesn't work past 340 lbs. The "ERROR" message blinking up at me from the scale display was a horrible thing to see. I'm facing the facts now: In nearly a year I have gained back nearly all of the 100 pounds it took me 16 months of careful eating and conscious living to lose.
So this is day 1.
Back to tracking food & slowly trying to get my portions under control.
Workouts start today.
I will get my water allotment in & make a conscious effort to do so every day.
I'm very disappointed, but also determined.
