I don't have mirrors in my house that show me from the neck down. Over the weekend I went out of town with some friends. We were sitting in a diner waiting for a table. As we sat in the waiting area, I looked in front of me and saw this large woman looking back at me - I thought, she's BIG! Guess what? It was me! I've been in denial for so long! I exercise but I use that as an excuse to eat. So, on this day - once again - I will start over and lose the 50 pounds I know needs to come off.

    Congratulations on your choice to better your life!

    Eat well, and track your calories, weigh yourself weekly (although I admit--I weigh daily! :embarassed: ) and measure, measure, MEASURE your body parts!

    If you like to read inspiring blogs, take a look at mine :wink: located here at MFP (the address is in my signature).

    Friend me, if you like. :smile: I am always here to listen and support! :flowerforyou:
