OKAY!!

Okay....
So I feel like a broken record.....
Today is day one of a fresh new start...I have been going to the gym with a friend, but haven't been following the diet. Last night I had an epiphany (sp??). I am SO fed up with being over weight and unhealthy. This morning I weighed in at 160.0. It is EXTREMELY hard for me to report that, but I think it is necessary to share the bad as well as the good. I have to be honest, as that is what this blog is all about. So there ya have it. As of today, I am putting the scale away for one week. I am finally at the end of my rope, and desperate enough to do this. Oh, and up til now I have been chewing gum like a mad woman. THAT is stopping. I got rid of all my gum. I thought it was helping me fight off cravings, but I think it was actually making me want more. So, no more gum for me. Instead I have made some strawberry lemon popsicles and when I get a craving, I will get one of those. So there you have....the cold, ugly truth!! Sorry it took so long for me to report...just too ashamed.
I will be reporting every day again, but not with my weight, as I have put the scale away for a week. Instead, I will report a successful day and any struggles I may have had. Next Thursday I will weigh in and report my weight to you all.
Sorry for the dissappointment for those of you that follow my blog....but thats all part of it. This is not by any means easy....it is the hardest thing (diet/weight wise) that I have ever done. The only reason I keep at it is because I KNOW that when done right, IT WORKS!!!!
Okay, well I need to get back to my kids. I will check in tomorrow.
