Here goes nothing!!

Well, here it goes...  I am committing to doing this and there is no turning back!  I am 34 years old and when I stepped on the scale this morning it read 301.5 lbs.  How did I let myself get this big???  I guess I have always been in denial about how big I really am.  It is not until I see pictures of myself that I realize my size.

 

I have an 8 month old daughter and I really want to set an example for her.  I want to be the active mom, not the mom sitting on the sidelines.  I have Dr. Phil's book and that is where I am going to start.  I know that it is not going to be an easy road but as Dr. Phil said, the next year is going to go by whether I do anything or not.  Well...I am choosing to do something about it.

 

I would appreciate any support and advice that anyone can give and I will offer the same to you.  Together, we can stick to it and accomplish our goals!!

My name's michelle, and I'm just starting the challenge to lose 100 lbs! So if anyone can give me any tips, that would be great!! I'm 21 years old, and have an eight month old.. I weigh close to 250 lbs now. I'm more motivated than ever to lose weight. I want to be healthy for me and my son. I don't want him to grow up to b overweight as well. So wish me luck!!
Good luck Michelle!!!  I know you can do it.  I have an 8 month old as well and I agree we need to be role models for them.  Keep me posted on how you are doing!
