Welcome to my
personal blog. This is my journey to a better, healthier, happier me. I will
mostly post about weight loss, but I may also post about other things as well.
This blog is a tool to help me throughout my journey. I want to rediscover who I
am; get to know myself and learn to love myself.
Now, let me
tell you a little about me...I am a 44 year old wife and mother. My husband and
my kids are my life. Well, that's part of the problem; I always put myself
last. I am more worried about how to make others feel good and comfortable and
forget about myself. I don't take care of myself and it shows now more than
ever. I have masked years of disappointment, frustration, regret, hurt, anger
and lots of pain with temporary satisfaction and gratification. My mask comes in
many different forms. Food is the biggest and most crucial piece to this puzzle.
I also use cosmetic and temporary things like a new hair-do, hair color, new
outfit among many other things; alcohol (which numbs everything). I want to fix
me so that others can see the true me and not just the fat. I have struggled
with obesity for many years and I'm sick of it. I'm ready to fight; to fight for
me. I want to love myself as others love me.
However, fair
warning for those that choose to follow this blog, there will be many different
things posted. It will mostly (and hopefully be) inspirational, full of tips,
what works for me, recipes, stories to make you cry, stories to make you
laugh. BUT I can't guarantee that there won't be days where I feel like throwing
in the towel, throw a pity party for myself or feel the need to vent with an
angry, depressed tirade. I'm hoping that those are few and far between, but I'm
not delusional...I'm a woman and I will be dieting. If you are willing to take
whatever I have to give, then come along with me. The more the merrier. Ready?
Let's go...
