The NEVER ending cycle of trying to lose weight...

 Here I am once again, wanting to lose weight, it truly is a never ending cycle. I have lost weight before and felt so good about myself, then alas I sabotage myself and gain it back and then rinse and repeat. 

This was me at one of my heaviest times, you can really see it in my face. I hate looking like that!! Why do I do that to myself? I have made some improvements over time, but am still not where I want to be. I have many changes that need to be made. 

We are going to Hot Yoga and that is really helping with my stretching and moving abilities and we love it. Who'd have thunk it? I am also trying to eat better. Some days I do really well and others I cave in to cravings. I think it is an addiction to food, because I really crave it. Yet when I am eating better and starting to notice I love that feeling even more. Here is another picture of when I thought I looked good. Still doing my favorite hobby of eating, of course. 

I am hoping to beat the cycle and make some positive changes to my life and to my body. My mental health needs work too, to fix the addiction to food and find other ways to reward myself for things. It will be hard, but worth it in the end. 

I want to be able to enjoy my later years without all the aches and pains that come with getting older. I want to be healthy and happy with myself. So putting it in writing might help it happen. Wish me luck!!
