A new me, a new blog! I'm starting over, and I'm doing it my way. My biggest goal is that this is going to be the last time I say that I am starting over, and that is a big deal. I think that in my life, I have had to "start losing weight" more times than I can count with my hands. I'm done with starting over, so this is the last time I am going to do it. So there.
My name is Nicki Davidson, and I am addicted to food. It has always been a passion of mine, and it always will be, but I am going to change the way that I look at and use food. It shouldn't be my favorite pastime, and it shouldn't be my go to activity for the handful of emotions that I experience on a day-to-day basis. As of... RIGHT now, food is a lifeline. Food is going to keep my alive, not kill me. Food is going to give me the energy I need every day, and will nourish me and help my body function in a healthy way.
Right now, my weight is affecting everything. I'm tired of holding myself back because I am heavy. It's not fair for me to do to myself. I deserve to be able to do everything I want in life, and I can't do those things because of my weight. I'm done with that. I want to be able to shop in regular stores (sorry, Torrid, I really do love you, but I just can't anymore...), I want to be able to tie my shoes without huffing and puffing, I want to be able to finish a 5K somewhere in the middle of the pack rather than at the end (but not in last place, thank God), and I want to be able to go to the doctor's office for a check-up without being worried about them telling me that I have diabetes or heart disease. I want all these things and more! And I am going to get them. I just have to treat my body with the respect and love that it deserves.
I am ready to change my life for good this time. I want to make my friends and family proud, but most of all, I want to make myself proud. I want to do things that I love to do, but in ways that are going to get me closer to the person that I want to be.
This blog isn't going to just be about me losing weight, but about my journey to being the best version of myself. I won't just post things when I lose 5 pounds, but I will talk about food and recipes that I like, about activities that I discover that are fun, and about school and work. This blog is going to be me sharing the little secrets I find out about life that are worth sharing with the world.
My best friend recently moved to Idaho, and I made a promise to myself and to her that the next time we see each other, probably next summer, that I would be at least 50 pounds lighter, and I intend to keep that promise. As of right now, I am going to be a healthier, happier version of myself. I have set up a new meal plan that I am going to start tomorrow morning, and my mom is being supportive enough to do it with me. I love that woman.
I feel really good about where I am right now, and I feel even better about where I am headed. I can't wait to share my journey with you, along with all the little life-secrets I discover along the way! As I said before this is the last time that I am going to start over; with this in mind, I will leave you with another quote:
"Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another stepping stone to greatness."
