Weight Loss Story Part 1

My Resolution:

Now that 2009 is here I am tackling my resolution with you.  In some ways I think that this will make it happen.  It is the 14th year that my resolution has been the same and I would like to make it happen this year.  Like millions of other people I would like to, I need to, loose weight.  I am not a mildly overweight or pleasently plump woman.  My weight is killing me and I feel it.

I think that an important part of loosing weight is discovering why you want to looke weight.  I have many reasons all of which are very important to me.

• My girls: Everyday I discuss with my girls, especially Abigail, why we need to eat right.  I have drilled it into her hear that it is important to eat right to be healthy.  Many times I feel like a hipocrite.  I know just about everything there is to know about eating health and loosing weight.  I have many times considered being a nutritionist.  Who would go to an obese nutritionist though?  So for my girls I need to make this resolution stick.
• My Foot: Over the summer I broke my foot in a bad place.  The Lisfranc joint is what supports your arch and wouldn’t you know that is the spot I broke two bones.  I am in need of surgery and would like to be able to bounce back a little easier.
• My Health: At the age of 31 I am a borderline diabetic, borderline high blood preasure and who knows what else.  I think about my future.  I am dying everyday!  Each yummy treat I eat a little more of me dies.  I am killing myself and I need to stop!

We will do this together.  Join me in living a healthier life.  I will post a recipe that I have tried and liked every week and will post a picture of myself on Sundays.  Feel free to loose with me.  All we can loose is weight and all we can gain is LIFE!
