Just the beginning

Once again I am going to try to get my body to healthy state I know I should be in. I want to be done with heartburn for good. I want to not have fluctuating weight. I want to not feel tired and NEVER again have a migraine. I want to take care of this temple. So, I am going to start keeping track of all the things I need to be doing to make this happen. So I figured why not go public and get some accountability. I know I have my husband and my mom but that is just not the same as blabbing my weight and bad habits to friends and potentially complete strangers.

So here are my less than scientific stats:

• Weight - somewhere between 175 and 180, depending on the time of day and month.
• I have been doing weight watchers on and off for years, more off than on. I am going to track points here. I can have 26 points a day plus an extra 35 anytime during the week.
  
• Heartburn - a few times a week
• Bloating - often
• Snacks -too much sugar, too often, too, too, too much
  
• Meals - usually fairly healthy, occasionally not
• Migraine headaches - not often but two times a year too much!
  
• Pain - achy back due to skiing accident a decade and half ago, sometime achy joints
• Exercise - Usually 4 -5 times a week at the gym - the only thing I do consistently
  
• Infertility - Surgery for endmetriosis last year, poly-cystic ovaries which is affected by sugar intake.
  
• Just feeling fat - most of the time
• Tinnitus - ringing in my ears - don't know what I can do about this but it sure is bothersome
  

Now here is where I want to be

• Weight - Under 150, but I would be happy at 150.
  
• No more heartburn, body aches, migraines, tinnitus
  
• Increase my intensity, duration and frequency of my exercise.
  
• Looking forward to clothes shopping and finding lots of pretty clothes.
  

So starting tomorrow I am going to write down everything that affects my health - positively or negatively.
