I'm not really sure who's going to read this. I want you to know that if you are among the few that I am glad you have taken the time to stop by and see what I'm up to. If you know me then you know that I am a big girl. (emphysis on the BIG) I haven't always been so blessed with abundance. I was a normal kid and teenager. And only gained my extra self over the course of the last 15 years. OUCH! I just realized that I have spent almost half of my life unhappy about the way I look, struggling to get motivated to do something about it. That's a long time. I don't want to say that when I turn 40. I'd like to make it to 40. The reality is that unless I decide (key word there) that I want to live life I've gotta do something to make that possible. What am I going to do right now to get there? I am going to start by taking my medication like I am supposed to. I am going to quit drinking soda & koolaid (yes koolaid). I am going to work on eating more grilled meats and fresh veggies and fruit. (My downfall is "fast" foods - whether picked up or cooked at home) And I am going to get MOVIN every day. I am starting out at 260 (my heaviest) and my goal (set by my doctor) is 148, so, I have a LONG way to go. I know all of my friends and especially my family will be a tremendous support. I'm excited about starting this journey. See you out there!
