Hi. My name is Trouble Kari Lahree OHara and I have gained so much weight, I am growing out of all my clothes. The last time I weighed myself, it was 191 pounds. I had to buy elastic waist pants because I am still gaining weight. My pants are a size 16/18 and my shirt size is a 16. I am writing this blog to be accountable to myself and you in my efforts to change my life habits to a healthier, purposed filled life. I want to track my life choices as I strive to become a more fulfilled human being.
Though my goal is to lose weight to a healthy amount, my pursuits in a healthier, less sedentary lifestyle will be documented here. I want to do a whole life makeover. Change my way of thinking, get hobbies other than watching tv and reading all the time. Feel like I have a purpose. As I explore and expand my world, I hope you come along with me for the ride.
I just started reading a book called The Artist's Way. it is a 12 week course on how to unblock the creative in you. I am hoping that I will be able to find a creative way to approach housework, for which I have a big phobia. I suffer from PTSD and DID. I am learning on how to function and handle stress. I have a loving, understanding husband who helps me deal with the outside world. To help me get out of the house, I became a Docent at our local zoo, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. Number 5 Zoo in the United States and Number 13 in the World! I am learning to crochet and do crafts. I recently cruised Craigslist and was able to get a 20 pound bag of rice for crafts. So many things I think I can do with it! The possibilities! I have lots of raw materials for crafts, just not organized enough to be able to do any right now. That is part of what I want to work on, hoping The Artist's Way will help me sort out my environment block.
Come along for the ride, it's going to be interesting!
