I want to talk a little bit about my goals. They are pretty hefty...
Weight Loss:
I really, really, really want to lose 100 pounds!
If you knew how many times I've "started a diet" and said, "I want to lose 100 pounds," you'd think I was crazy to try once again. Maybe I am crazy, but I really want to succeed this time. Am I afraid of failing...Again???? You betcha! Am I willing to give it another go? YES!
How:
Exercise: I'm planning on walking at least 5 days a week whether it be outside or in my Family Room to a Leslie Sansone Walking DVD. I'm going to start at 1 mile a day for a few days and then work my way up.
Diet: This is going to be so difficult for me. Only eat at mealtime unless a special treat is planned. So, no snacking! Ughh! Portion control is also very key to my transformation. I'm a potato/noodle lover so I'm going to have to really watch the carbs.
Blogging: By blogging about my journey I hope to keep myself motivated and encouraged.
Time Frame:
To keep myself on track, I need to have a time frame.
On September 17, 2018 I will have been married for 18 years. That means only 2 years until our 20th Anniversary! Two years can seem like a long time, but for the mammoth goal of losing 100 pounds successfully it might be just what I need.
My WHY:
Why do I want to lose 100 pounds? Let me count the why's:
~Obviously, I want to look better
~Obviously, I want to feel better
~Obviously, I want to be healthier
Obviously, I NEED to do this!
Where YOU Come In:
I know you don't "know" me but I need you! I need support. A lot of it.
Anybody want to join me? I could really use some encouragement along the way.
Let me know what you think about my goals. Do you think it is doable?

Can we be weight loss buddies? My joints ache from the extra weight and I'm selfishly going to say that "I just want to look good".
