Yogi - The "Why"

This is not the first time I have opened up a blog to try and loose weight. I was healthy before I came to the states, but have gained around 40 lbs in the last 10 years. When we came to the US, we were broke and my mom had no clue on how to live a healthy lifestyle. We normally had ramon noodles and fast food everyday. Over the years, in an attempt to loose weight, I have yo yo dieted, continually loosing and regaining the weight.. it has been a battle.

My mindset today is different. I've read over and over again that the commitment has to be for life and it has to be to be healthy. I guess i thought i believed it but now it all makes sense. The last year has been a worldwind. I have realized the value and need to be healthy. I am doing this because I am overweight and not healthy. I need to be fit so that so that I don't end up with heart issues or diabeties or whatever else comes with being obese.

I am the fattest I have ever been in my whole life. EVER. I am struggling to loose the weight but am determined that if i take it a day at a time, make healthy choices, one meal at a time, the pounds will drop and i will get healthly.

I dont want to yo yo again. this is a life committment. I found that when i go back and forth, i always stay in the struggle zone, because im always at a place, where i work out and eat right for a month, stop , then do the same.. so i always struggle with the hardest part over and over again (the first month).. its never pleasant. I'm determined to go past the month.. this is a life committment!
