Day 0

First, a little about me.

I'm a two-time mommy, one time wife, writer, photographer, and former Marine. I'm a woman, a sister, a daughter. I write, I paint and I love crafts.

I also have flaws!

I have polycystic ovary syndrome. I also have Bipolar type two disorder. I start projects, and rarely finish them. I'm forgetful, lazy, and sometimes a little selfish. :P

So, here on day 0, I bare some of my truths that I don't even tell my family. I'm scared. I'm tired. I work odd hours and have limited time with my family. But, something online changed my attitude. Another woman completed a 100 day journey. She kept a video diary and she pursued one of the hardest things for some - self improvement.

I tell you what, self improvement is something that's instilled in us in the Marines. We must seek self improvement. Well, I've fallen short of that myself in the last three years. I let myself go. I let my body put on some weight and didn't really do anything about it, though I "wanted to". Now, it's about my self worth. It's about my health. It's about doing what's best for me. I need to set the best example I can for my kids, and only I can hold myself accountable.

This is going to be a struggle. But, that's just how it is in this life. Time for me to get over it.
