Starting Over....

Here I am again. It's almost been a year since I first decided to blog my process. My weight has fluctuated a lot over the last year, but right now I am close to my heaviest weight ever. I had a moment yesterday when I put on my clothes, and I saw how I looked, and said "Okay, that's enough." I'm trying something new this time, and I plan to stick to it until I've lost 50 pounds. Sounds like a tall order, but I have to do it. I'm sick of being obese. When I buy new clothes or wear clothes that I have now, I usually determine whether or not I like them based on how well they hide what I don't like about myself. It's not about whether or not I think they're cute, it's only whether or not they hide me. That's not right! Sure, clothes are supposed to flatter a woman's figure, but I have reached the point where I no longer care about comfort, style, or anything else. I don't feel good in my own skin anymore. This can change, and I have the power to change it. Today is my new day 1. I'm on a program that is 1 week long, and is supposed to help burn fat. I will update my blog weekly to share my progress. My hopes are high, I'm as motivated as I was when I lost 20 pounds two years ago, and I have love and support from friends and family. I've even got a couple of people trying it with me. I have a really good feeling about this, and I think it's going to go well.
