Ups and no downs

OK, this year is going to be about me. In the past 19 years, I have lived my life for everyone but me. But that has led me to unhealthy weight, health problems etc...

2013 Is going to be the year of dicipline and independance. 

Starting at 241 lbs.....44 years old.  By June, 5 months from now I would like to be down 50 pounds. 10 pounds per month is going to be my goal.

Made a home made chicken and sausage gumbo soup. Yummy and spicy! :) Lif

Well found this new site and trying to figure it all out. Looks like it is pretty indepth, so hoping it has what I need to make a real lifestyle change.

Feeling blue today......raining outside and a dear friend has let me down. But going to focus on the good in life and the fact that I am going to make changes for myself.

I started walking this week and tomorrow going to hit a new gym and check it out.

Praying for good guidance, persistance, and god's g
