Well, I made it! I am now a #iheartOmron Fitness Ambassador.

What a huge responsibility, but I am so happy about it. I really needed something like this on my life. I have been trying to lose weight like for forever, so this is my chance of doing it and getting tools to do it the right way.

I have been yo-yo dieting for long time. I grew up overweight and I have lost the pounds and gained them back and more over and over, and over...

The main reason for my weight gain is that I am an emotional eater. I eat when I am sad, I eat when I am stressed out. The other reason is that I really never liked to exercise. However just recently I have decided that I needed a change. I was really close to a weight that was the weight limit for me. You know that number you say I will never let myself to weight that much. Well I almost got there. So I decided that day that I was going to start walking and changing my diet.

Here it is another chance to accomplish what I have tried for years. With this challenge I have the support of a great group: Mamavation and I have the tools that OmronFitness will be providing me and the other 24 bloggers chosen for this challenge.

We are going to be provided with HJ-323U connected pedometer and the new 510W scale for help us keep track our activity and weight. Also and the end of the challenge they are going to give us the new Strapless Heart Rate Monitor (HR-500U)

I want to invite your to follow my weight loss journey with this amazing tools and support system. I will be sharing my workouts and food plan, so maybe you want to join me and we can lose weight together. 

So far since my application date I have lost 5 pounds with walking  5 miles a day (and that was during the holidays). I cannot wait to see the results at the end of this challenge with all the accountability I am going to have.

Congratulations to all the other ambassadors!
