Reinventing myself...

Loosing weight is the biggest challenge that I have faced. Call me vain but I think my current weight is no longer healthy. I have tried a lot of dieting strategies but mid-way thru my program, I seem to loose steam. Not once have I been diagnosed as clinically obese. Not to mention my family's constant reminder that I am overweight.
Being overweight really brings down one's morale. I may always be seen laughing it off, but it would really hurt my feelings. Most often than not, I would make a dozen excuses not to be around my relatives who would only take notice of the weight I have gained. 
I mean, it really is hard to resist temptation and it really takes a lot of discipline, since I work for the food industry. I get free meals at the office not to mention the food that I have to taste and check everytime I would visit one of our outlets. Come on, who would say no to free meals?
Another thing that hinders me from loosing weight is my laziness. I hate exercising. I would rather lie down and sleep than to work my ass out. But then again, for me to be able to achieve the weight that is prescribed off me, I have to move.
I started with a simple regimen this time. 30 minutes of doing exercises on the stepper every morning. No fancy gym for me. Just so that my heart rate would increase thus increasing metabollic rate. Less carbs. I only eat carbs now every breakfast and lunch. My current weight is 140 lbs. and I intend to drop it to 115 lbs. at the least. It may take time but I sure am determined to do it.
