For better or for worse

Hi, my name is Carla and I'm 36 years old.  I'm starting this blog to show everybody my journey to success or failing on losing weight . 

Is this anything new?...I don't think so, but I know for a lot...thousands of people like me  losing weight seems to be a very difficult goal. Something that always get me very motivated to start this journey over and over again is to see the success stories of other people...so, I hope to be a motivation for somebody or... if  somebody is in this same journey and  wants to share something with me feel free to leave your comments.

Me, before and now 

This is embarrassing! but is my reality here I was 185 pounds

This is 8 years ago and I was 135 pounds (this is my goal)

I started gaining all this weight when I got married. My husband (Chris) is 6 feet 3inches tall and I'm 5 feet 3 inches tall and when we got married I thought I could eat as much as he can hahaha! guess what I was WRONG. Well, long story short I've been trying to lose this weight for the last 8 years. I have tried different things: running, videos, walking, P90X(great video), all of them are great but there is one little big problem, I don't stick to them for too long or I don't have consistency. My most recent example Last month I started my second round of P90X and into the 3rd week we went on vacation, silly me I thought I was gonna exercise while on vacation...all I exercised was my jaw hahaha!
