Tired of being the fat girl! I know from the past that my body is not supposed to be this big. I have been skinny before!! But, I'll be the first to admit that my eating is an emotional thing. Boredom, happiness, depression, celebration. It all brings on eating.

Well I've decided that I'm worth it this time. It's my time to prove to myself that I can be more than a "taxi-driving maid." I don't want to spend my "senior" years in pain because I've kept too much weight on my joints. It's time to get out and enjoy life.

Right now I'm at 205, but my goal is to get to somewhere between 135 and 150. I was at 150 before I had my son 16 years ago, and felt good there. I want to see that again!!

My favorite show right now is Biggest Loser. Those contestants truly motivate me. If they can deal with the workouts that they're put through, surely I can deal with a small portion of that......huh?

So here we go......I know that though Christ, who strengthens me, all things are possible!
