It's all about you

I haven't blogged in a while, sorry. I have had a lot happen in my life. I have gotten divorced, pregnant with another set of surrogacy twins, delivered said surrogacy twins and gotten back down to my pre pregnancy weight again.  And now another new year with new opportunities, new friendships, new relationships, new goals, so many opportunities to be happy with yourself. I have said this before but do not make a new years resolution make a lifestyle change! It's not losing weight its becoming healthy. Which means it's forever, not until you lose the 10-50lbs you want to loose and then go back to your old habits. It took me 29 years to gain the 90lbs that I lost in only 3 years (it would have taken less time if I would have stopped getting pregnant) That's no time at all! But it was a lot of commitment at first then that commitment became routine. I no longer dread going to the gym, it's just a part of my day. I get to eat crap that I want to now, not all day everyday but I get treats. I always used to say I'd rather be fat and happy than skinny and miserable, but I'm not skinny and miserable I'm skinny and happy, the happiest I've ever been in my entire life. Best of all I enjoy time with my kids. I can take them to the trampoline park and keep up with them it's great! Do it for you though do it not so you'll live longer but so you'll live healthier. So you won't live on blood pressure medications, and insulin, and cholesterol meds. So your doctor won't know you by your first name and dread seeing you because he/she knows if you'd just eat better and exercise you wouldn't need any of the crap he's shoving down your throat! You are worth it! And if you have kids, they think your worth it too!
