We have all been where I am at , at one time or another. We have all had great ideas and a plan only to let something get in the way. We have all struggled and then given up. But what do you do when you give up? Do you start over or do you completely give up?
Well that is where I am at. I am at that point where I gave up on losing weight. I tired lost a couple pounds, gained a couple pounds and lost a couple pounds again. And now I have gained a couple more pounds. So I was ready to completely give up.
But the other night something clicked. Something that pulled at every heart string I have. It was my family. Yap they can get to you can’t they. I was to the point where I got tired taking the laundry upstairs. I am getting tired doing about anything anymore. And that is not fair to my family.
My father was overweight and I lost him to a heart attack when I was 27. So he dis not get to see me get married. He did not get to see my kids grow up and he did not get to see his first great grandchild. But most importantly my kids did not get to now their Papa. And I am ready to break that chain and make sure I get to spend years and years with my kids and Grand kids.
So I decided I need to do something for myself and that in turn will do something for my family. It is time to start my life over. Time to get healthy and stay healthy. Time to teach myself how to eat right, exercise right and live a long long happy healthy life.
Time to START OVER!!!!
Today’s weight 215 lbs.
I figured the best thing for me to do is to post my pictures. That was the hardest thing for me to do but the best thing for me at the same time.






2 Month Planning Calendar including a shopping list

Good for you!!!! And it’s great (and courageous) to post pictures. When I did it (not as boldly as you though), I felt okay about it because I knew it was going to start changing. It took another year for it to start changing, but I’ve made a little dent now and that’s good.
Are you saying that you’re a grandmother? For real?!! Because you look like you’re still not quite 27.
I’m so happy for you and will continue to cheer you on!!!
