Okay, day one, back on the wagon. 1 hr and 55 minutes worth of workouts. I am tired, and curious to see if I will rinse and repeat at least an hour of that tomorrow. Wish me luck, please, and thank you

It amazes me how one simple show, and one transformation, can really change a person's perspective not only on their lives but on life in general. I just finished watching Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss edition and it was a very emotional episode. The gentleman on the show, Tony, weighed in at the beginning at 398 lbs and the show profiled his year long weight loss journey. In that year he had so much life thrown at him; one of his sons died, he got out of a serious relationship and was also homeless for 6 months. Yet even with all of that thrown in his way he didn't let any of it stop him from reaching his goals and by the time the show was over he weighed in at 200 lbs.
His dedication and determination to lose the weight even in the face of all the adversity he went through is truly inspiring, and it hit a real nerve with me. I, like many of us here, have had life thrown at me from all angles and food has always been my crutch. I've allowed myself to get to a point where I am endangering my own life simply because I've let food get the better of me. I must change this and as of today I will no longer let myself be a slave to food ~ its upto me to say no thanks and know that I am worth more than what I put into my mouth

I have been pretty good about tracking my food...
Like Hollylane there are items that I am struggling with... What happens if you go over on your protein? What happens if you don't get enough? The same can be said for the other things listed... I have no problem with the movement/exercise... The food is the part I am struggling with as it says I am not getting enough... I drink plenty of water, so that it isn't a problem either... Keep up the good fight everyone! Hope to see some more of you on myfitnesspal...
