Second times a charm???

Hi, my name is Liz, and I satrted this program a year ago. I made it through about six months I believe and quit. In January of 2011, I weighed 175 lbs, at Five foot five and a half! Today I weigh 150. I am getting there but need lotsof help!
Abut three weeks ago, my 53 year old mother, who is riddled with health problems, such as cancer, celiac disease, diabetes, lupus, fibrmyalgia, and so much more, had suffered two small strokes. During that time, I had found out that, I had some of the very same risk factors that she has. My b12 is too low, and I had to start giving myslef b12 injections. And my good cholesterol, is WAY too low. Not to mention I am overweight. (Though not as overweight as I was a year ago! ) I have never wanted to lose weight, eat right, and be healthy more than I do right now. I have a beautiful family, that I would like to see grow, and mature, and I want to teach them how to take care of their bodies, and I want to see my husband old, and gray. So I am taking a vowel to do this program. To eat all the foods that I should and minimize the foods I shouldn't.
The biggest problem here though, is I hate fish, I hate nuts, I hate cooked vegetables. But, I try to make myself eat those things, and hope that eventually, my taste buds start to rejoice for these foods, as I know my heart and body will!
I know that it is in God's will for me to do this, to conquer my genetics, and to be free from any worry or fear I may have because of the health issues I can see that could be a part of my future. But I refuse to give up this battle! I know that it was already won, before I started to fight it! Jesus won this fight when his blood was shed on the cross for us! As Chris Tomlin and Psalms say, "If our God is for us, than who could ever stop us? And if our God is with us, then what could stand against us?"
I believe that By the end of 2012, I will look, and feel amazing! And I hope some of you will want to walk with me through this journey! Because I am looking for friends and support as well!
