Well, it's time for a new me. You know, I have just found out that my daughter is ashamed to be seen in public with me because of my size. I need to do something about that. NOW. I've actually been following a new diet plan for about a week now. It seems to be working. It's kind of a modified South Beach plan. I have been doing really well on it, except that I can't seem to shake my Mountain Dew habit. I think I need Divine Intervention.
Anyway, I decided to cut my hours back at work so that I will have a little free time. Hopefully, I will be able to go to the gym after I leave school now instead of having to either run home to get ready for work, or run home to relieve my babysitter. And I can take the two older kids with me when I go. They actually like going....not because they want to work out, but because they want to utilize the pool, hottub, and water slide. But, hey...at least they're getting exercise. I find that I work harder when I'm in the water than I do when I'm on the treadmill. And I actually have fun doing it.
So, wish me luck. I know that I have a long way to go, but I can get there. If other people can lose two and three hundred pounds, I can surely lose one hundred.
