Fatty Becky

On January 3rd 2010 - I made the decision to change the way I eat and become healthier and happier. I had ordered the New Atkins Revolution Book and decided that this was going to be the tool I used to get myself back to a healthy weight. I am 5'6" and as of right now I am 176 lbs on the nose. I would love to get down to 140 lbs. That will put me at a healthy BMI. My goals may change as I get closer to where I want to be, but right now, 140 is where I want to be.

On New Years Eve we went out with some friends and a few pictures were taken. Looking at that picture actually brought tears to my eyes. How did I let myself go so far? I used to be so thin and athletically built and now, well now I am ashamed of myself and my body. I look forward to this journey and though I don't expect to be perfect, I am going to do my best to get back my health, figure and confidence.

  1. Ok, Becky! I am here and support whatever it is that you are working towards. Just know that it is hard with all the processed foods that we look at everyday. Hugs and Love and carrots & celery.

  5. This is great. Go after it girl. It will be a lot of hard work, eating right, exercise, tears and doubts you will put on yourself. But you can do it for sure. Just stay strong and true to your new ways. Keep your head high. It prob. won't happen over night, but the better you eat and exercise, the easier, faster it will become and the better you will feel. Much Luck!
