Change in my life!

This is a very hard post for me because I do not like to be real public about things like this. I am beginning a new diet(or should I say change in life style) Monday and I have decided this will be the turn around point for me in my life. I just have to lose weight. My weight embarrasses me and I am very conscious of it. I hate being over weight. It makes me feel very ugly and just overall have not much self esteem. I really need to do this for myself and my family.

I have made a decision that I am going to do this if it kills me! I am going to start on the South Beach Diet tomorrow on Monday. In the beginning I am going to exercise twice a day-everyday. I am going to update on this blog b/c I feel like if I do that and people are reading about it I am more determined to do it!

Please pray for me! I really want to make this work.

Todd is also beginning a diet. He is doing a different one from me --he is doing the Bowflex diet so we are both in a little competition(of course I know men lose weight quicker than women-so I have to keep that in mind when doing this)!

I will update sometime this week on our progress. I have 120 lbs. total that I want to lose! I am going to shoot for small goals. 10lbs at a time! So I am kicking it in high gear! The first ten pounds are on their way off!!! YEAH!!!!

Yeah for you! We all have to come to that point of deciding when. I will certainly be praying for you. Pray for me that I will exercise at least 3 times a week - I don't like it, but I need it. Tell your mom hi!
