Hello....

So I am starting a journey. I am Sarah and I am 26 years old and recently married. I have always blamed other people in my life for my bad eating habits and choices, and now that my husband and I are living on our own, and buying our own food, I can't do that anymore. There is no other obligations on me at the moment other than being a good wife, so it leaves time in my day to do the things I should have done years ago. Realize that I am the only person who can decide whether I live or die. I have high blood pressure and I know I need to get things under control if I want to have a normal healthy pregnancy in a year or two, so here I am. Trying to do the right thing for myself, and for my family. Maybe a little accountability will do me well.

Sarah
SW:215lb
Initial GW : 210 lbs (start realistically)

    Hi, I am actually not a Spartan :) I do not really have a preferance one way or the other, but I am going to be attending U of M - D in the Fall of 2012, so I guess we will be rivals then. :-D

    I have similar goals as you. I first lost weight because I wanted to be healthier before I got pregnant. I have put the weight back on but again I have realized that I need to be healthier. Add me if you want!
