Hi my name is Linda and although I have been overweight for the majority of my life. i am making up my mind to lose the weight and get to my ideal weight. Which means I have to break a lot of old habits and add some new healthier eating habits. I do not have any of the weight induced diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol etc.. However, I do suffer from old high school injuries to both knees and have lower back pain.

I do not have a real active lifestyle meaning i have a career where it does not require me to move a lot and mostly I am sitting at a desk. So exercise will be something that I will struggle with implementing into my regiment.

I also, crave coca cola, chocolate and well really anything sweet. SO help me stay away from it at first and then introduce it in moderation. I have YouTube channel that I am using to document my journey so you can get to know me better on that channel. I pray that you will support me in this. I know that this will not be an easier journey but I tend to complete the journey. I want to stay healthy and I know that means I must release this weight.

I am hoping that eating more healthier will cause my skin to clear up from the adult acne and also start to help my hair grow more healthier also.

I HATE WATER so please stay on my to drink water.

I will be deworming during this process so I will blog about that. I will also do a detox during this journey and will talk about that too. Yep...I am trying any and everything that I can to help me reach my goal. So follow me on YouTube. Go to http://youtube.com/tranformingmeb4u and if you are not my friend on FB you can friend me at facebook.com/coachlindahillman2.

Looking forward to befriending you and releasing weight together. If you know some good exercise routines for the lazy pass them my way.

    Leslie Sansone is one of my new best friends. She does a walking series and is REALLY good!!! The easiest and inexpensive way to ease in to exercise. She has a CD available at wal-mart, some stuff on youtube and is on both comcast and att tv on demand channels. She has a 20 minute one to over an hour one. Start with a 20 minute one, you will like them and it goes by so fast! Goodluck Sis!
