Happy New Year, again.

Dieting sucks! That is a major truth. I also tend to throw in the towel quickly. Last year I went 5 months mostly without sugar and lost a total of 17 pounds because of it. Then I started eating sugar again and drinking soda again and bam I gained all the weight back along with some extra. As of today I am at my highest weight ever. I am feeling so fat, sick, and nearly dead. My clothes dont fit, I am uncomfortable or in pain most of the time. Today has to be the day for a serious change. It is my goal to go vegan this year and to use the Forks Over Knives plan to do it. My job changed this last year and now I sit all day which has increased the weight gain. So lets see how this year goes. I have a meal plan for this week that is vegan, sugar free, and oil free. Praying for God to help me to stick with this. After talking with one of my best friends I am encouraged and ready to do this. Also Day One went very well. I had a smoothie for breakfast, an apple midday, and supper was cabbage, sausage and potatoes, with very little salt and some pepper. Just water to drink, no soda, and so far no caffeine withdrawal headache.The pictures below are me on day one weighing in at 277.4 and BMI is 44.8. I hope that these numbers improve and I start feeling better soon.
