My body is ready for a change

I used to be the skinny girl, the one that could eat anything at any time and would still be skinny ...but things changed after I had my second baby, even during my pregnancy I could tell that I was gaining more weight that I did when pregnant of Valentina but didn't pay much attention, then the baby was born and I started my T25 routine, i was getting good results but I don't know what happened, i stopped and I could make a list of excuses of the whys but let just leave it like that.

When it comes to losing weight my biggest struggle is FOOD, I love to eat and I love it even more if it is sweet, I know I need to change that, I'm 30 pounds heavier than my normal weight and that's just unacceptable. It's time for me to open my eyes, this is not healthy, this is not attractive.

I want to be able to feel good, I'm at the point where I don't even want to go out because nothing fits, I've cried a few time when watching the lady in the mirror, that doesn't look like me ...2 days ago I started eating better, I'm using a calorie counter app, my goal is 1500 calories per day and I'm not going to lie, this is hard, I want to be able to eat my cookies and ice cream, I miss eating a huge meal but I need to choose between that or feeling good.

On Monday I'll be starting another exercise routine again, I'm not sure if it's going to be T25 or P90X3 but I'll be sharing my progress, I know this is going to be a long journey, I know I won't lose 30 pounds in just a few days, I know I need to be persistent  and I will, I CAN DO THIS

My first blog!

If you ask me what's the reason behind this blog I'm afraid i won't have a specific answer. I'm sure you'll find a variety of things in here, I just want to be able to share my experiences whether it's about my kids, my fitness and healthy eating struggles or the ups and downs in my marriage ...a few days ago i was reading some blogs and i thought it was a fun way to speak my mind, to say the things that I'm afraid to say out loud or to complain about life ...who knows where this would take me and to be honest i don't even know if this would last.

So let me introduce myself and tell you some facts about me:
my name is Diana, I'm 25 years old.
I have 2 beautiful daughters named Valentina (8 years) and Liana (8 months) and I'm married to a great and wonderful man, his name is Luis.
We live somewhere in PA and I'm a stay at home mom/wife
English is my second language so I'm sorry in advance for any spelling errors, I'm from Colombia so i speak fluent spanish.

i think this is it for now ...I'm sure i'll be back soon
