                    Today I decided I was going to lose weight. I have struggled with my weight since my birth.  I have been a part of several weight-loss programs including gastric bypass surgery with virtually no results. I feel that my weight-loss is my biggest struggle my biggest disappointment my biggest challenge. Recently I became sick with saddlebag blood clots in my lungs I almost died, God gave me a second chance. While laying in ICU unable to move because any movement could have killed me I lost 20+ pounds. Just from eating smaller portions in the hospital. I was released from the hospital and needless to say I gained every pound back. Was I surprised absolutely not frustrated absolutely however I refuse to waste this second chance that I've been given. So I will take this 2nd chance and with God as my guide Jesus as my strength I will lose 100+ lbs. If I make friends here fine and if I don't I'm OK with that too. I wish everyone on the same journey as I am find their success.

 Thank you. Going into it this time with a lot less "know it all" attitude. My approach this time is humility.0
