This is my story that I feel I need to share or just document. I have always had a big "NO" to myself for talking about my weight so publicly. I need this and I will do it.
I don't want to be looked upon in any wrong way, this is basically for me and maybe I can encourage others too.
I don't want to be the 90% statistics of overly obese people... and currently I am. One of my fears is I am teaching my children these bad habits and I in no way want them to be or feel like I have for SEVERAL years... as it is at its worse now.
I share this with buttlerflys in my stomach, but know I cant hide it.. I am who I am right now and it shows. I weighed myself yesterday morning before I ate. I was at my highest. I read the scale and feel to the ground and cried. I havent ever been that high... 271.5 pounds. WHY katrina could you let yourself become this. I couldnt let this happen anymore.
I am a Biggest Loser Fan, I see the pain they go through and loose massive amounts of weight... why cant I? WELL I WILL!
I had been wanting to try out spin classes or a new one I saw on GTU and fell in love with it right away.. ZUMBA. I shared with friends and family that I really wanted to do this. Last night my friend text me and asked me if i wanted to go. At first I couldnt, but in the end it did work out and I couldnt feel more excited to be going! I jumped in the shower shaved my legs and waiting patiently.
It was 45 min of FUN, Excitement and SWEAT like I have never sweated before. I pushed through some pain and kept it up. The soreness is worth it.
I want to thank Ciji and Chantel for asking me to go. Im going to push through this depression I deal with and be a better me. I want to be happy, I want to want to wake up and get dressed and put on cute jeans, I want to go out with my friends and not feel ashamed.
And its going to happen!!!
I woke up this morning to weigh just cause I knew i should have done something at ZUMBA..... I LOST 2.5 POUNDS!!! I cant wait to watch this ugly number fall and fall every week.
Please keep me in your prayers as I know this will be a struggle, But I can do it.
When I get more comfortable I will post before pictures

Way to go Trina! I really want to do summer water aerobics but am not brave like you, I am too scared to do it by myself. Plus, i don't have a babysitter at 7:00am.
I giggled when you said that you took a shower and shaved your legs to work out!

I'm so proud of you! It's hard to admit that well...we're not perfect. Working out is definietly hard to schedule in when you have kids. I can hardly do it and I only have 1. But nevertheless I make time everday to get in at least 30 minutes of working out. Zumba is by far the funnest class I've taken at the gym. I love it! I'm so glad you're taking it. It's a fun way to excersise and time flies when you're having so much fun! Keep up the hard work! It will pay off!
Oh sissy, I'm so sorry BUT once you hit that "low" point in your mind you can only go "UP" I'm so proud of you for JUST DOING IT! I wish I could do it, I love you no matter what you weigh your the most beautiful person INSIDE and OUT..(yes your HOT!) I love you! And I can't wait FOR YOU to get into your skinny jeans!
you all make me CRY! thanks for all the support.
Jen, THANKS! you know what i mean :) love ya
Yes nidia its HARD with kids. But i can say im grateful for the internet cause when I cant do it at the gym I will work out with YOU TUBE! Im proud of you for going everyday!!

Even though I dont know you too well... you have such a great heart and I can tell when I read things you write. Good luck with Zumba! And the weight loss. CONGRATULATIONS on 2.5 lbs already!

You are awesome Katrina! I wish I was more like you in more ways than one.
Katrina, you are such a strong woman! I see your determination, and I know you will what ever you set your mind to! Be strong, hang in there. Know that you are not alone and there are others going through this. You will be a strength to them as you share your story.
