Oh My G...!!!

  So, here it goes. I stepped on the scale yesterday,umm ya,I freaked out! It actually said to me...YOU ARE THE BIGGEST YOU HAVE EVER BEEN...DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
  I knew it,I have felt it for awhile.I know I have to change things.I have been feeling down for the last few weeks. I have been waiting for someone else to make my move.It just seems if I didn't go that route I really didn't know where to "start" on this journey. So,I waited and waited ...January...February...and now it is the middle of MARCH.I was growing and growing.Nothing to wear,so I would rather stay in the house then go out.Then I get bored,then I eat...so that leads to my heaviest ever...WTF!!!
  I can't keep doing this,I feel like shit and I look the worst I have ever looked!
  So, while I was taking a shower I had a aha  moment(more like 30 min.)The thought of starting a new "DIET"seemed very overwhelming,like when you walk into your cluttered office to clean it...and you look at it and turn right back around and walk away.But,we all know if you tackle it a pile at a time it seems much more doable.That is how I am going to go about my new "plan".It won't be a quick fix,but I really feel it work.
  Here is another overwhelming thought...there are a lot of "diets"out there...a ton...and to me I would like to try them,I see all my friends on FB trying this,and that and really working for them ,but I swear it takes at least $200 to start any of these.Whether it be the program or all the food you have to buy to start the program ,you have to admit it is very expensive to start a new diet or eating regimen.
  I just DON'T have the money to do that ,so do I '"WAIT" again? NO ,remember I had a aha moment that solves these "excuses".
  Here is my plan:
I am going to change 1 meal at a time.So, for the next three weeks I am only focusing on Breakfast.I won't have fatty,carby,sugary breakfast..That way,I only have to focus on eating healthy for Breakfast. Not alot of grocery's,not alot of meal planning,and not alot of prep...but I KNOW I can shave off at least 200 calories every morning. for three weeks this is my focus. I googled low-fat,low carb,high energy breakfasts,that is what I will be doing.

They say after 21 days you can start a new habit...

Here is my schedule:

1st 3 weeks- breakfast
2nd 3 weeks-breakfast(new habit)&Lunch
3rd 3 weeks-breakfast&lunch(new habit)&Snacks
4th 3weeks-breakfast&lunch&snacks(new habit)&Dinner
5th 3 weeks-breakfast&lunch&snacks&dinner(new habit)&Sweet treats

  In 15 weeks I will be eating way healthier and feeling way better...it doesn't matter how much I lose,losing will be inevitable, I will be feeling amazing.
  So, my focus for these next three weeks is breakfast.Not overwhelming to me at all.I will blog recipes , healthy tips along my Journey...and possible pictures! ( I love pictures) I would love to for all you to follow me and give me moral support.Share my blog with anyone who is feeling overwhelmed with changing everything at once.Let's just start "One meal at a time"

Thank you!
Shannon
