Step One... (Tuesday, March 01, 2016)

Today is the day I'm starting my journey to finally being healthy. My legs hurt. My ankles throb. My feet swell. My back aches. Something has to give. I weighed myself today for the first time in over a year. It was literally painful to read and accept that number. I never want to see that number again. At this point, I can barely walk 1650 steps a day. Tomorrow, I'll try to get 1651. It has to get better every day, right? I have to let go of all my past failures. All my past attempts. Just focus on today. Even though I only made it 1643 steps today, I feel good that I took the most important one: the first one. Bring it on, tomorrow!
