As many of you know, I am beginning the journey to a healthier life. I am going to Structure House, a healthy living center, in Durham, NC and staying for one month. In this month, I hope to change many of my bad habits, and get a jumpstart on my new goals. All of your support means the world to me and I can't wait to share my journey with you!

The Beginning...
Over the past several years I have developed several bad habits that have affected my weight and my health. With my parents' help, I have been given the once in a lifetime opportunity to stay at a wellness/weightloss center for a month and am so excited to begin my journey to a healthier life. While I'm here, I hope to learn life skills that will help me develop better habits with nutrition, exercise and hopefully smoking as well. I know so many people can relate to my situation, when we are in college and begin working full time jobs, our health is often put on a back burner. I have reached a point in my life where it needs to become a priority and I am ready to dedicate the next 28 days...and years to come...to making myself a better person both inside and out. I am going to try to write as much as I can about my experiences here at Structure House in Durham, NC, and hopefully include some tips and information I learn as well. Thanks to you all for supporting me in my journey and I always look forward to hearing from you all! Let the journey into Destination Fitville begin!

ReplyDeleteI think this is really great.I too have struggled with my weight and have started choosing different foods to get myself healthier also.My biggest thing was always wanting to starve and not eat,so when i did eat i usually ate too much.I have cut out sugar,I now eat oatmeal with splenda and choose turkey fish or chicken instead of beef or pork.It is helping but slowly.I want it now!! lol But i hope everything works out for you,i know exactly how you feel.Can't wait to read more posts...xoxo
