So here is the beginning to my blog. I have been heavy most of my life and I have wanted to change that for as long as I can remember. Although I have always been big, I have always been healthy. Even during pregnancy I never faced high blood pressure or other complications that people assumed would plague someone of my size.
But healthy or not. I know my weight needs to change in order for me to stay healthy.
I am 29 years and and have an 18-month old daughter.
For the past couple months I have been going to CrossFit Vancouver Island and I already feel a difference in my body. I feel much stronger and after every workout I feel so much more proud of myself.
While exercise is important diet also plays an important role in things too. After some research I decided to jump into a raw food diet. I figured that I needed to eat foods in a form that would make my body operate better. Since being on a raw food diet, about 80 per cent raw, I have lost 15 pounds in three weeks.
So from my highest weight from just a few months ago, I am down 20 pounds. At this point I am still not comfortable publishing my weight, maybe down the road I'll feel more comfortable doing so.
