I have been blessed with 2 wonderful boys they are almost 10 and 2. With my first child I actually lost apprx. 60lbs – best diet I have ever been on. With my second son I wasn’t so lucky although I only gained about 5 lbs but I have since gained another 20.
I have been overweight all my life and just once I would like to know what it’s like to be one of the skinny witches (wink wink) us fat girls always complain about. I am sick of the line “You have such a pretty face but…”. I really believe that we need to accept ourselves and our children the way we are. We lead by example. If I don’t buy cookies not only will they not tempt me, but I am saving my children from an unhealthy lifestyle as well! I don’t want either one of my children to end up where I am now!
My goal is to weigh 165lbs by my 35th birthday. That comes out to a total weight loss of 185lbs in the next 19 months – in order to achieve this goal I will need to lose apprx. 9 lbs/month. I don’t know if that is possible but I have to believe that it is. Anything is possible if you put your mind to it!
It is time to say Bye bye fat girl, hello world. I have made up my mind this time and there is no turning back. I am taking back my life starting today!
