July 7, 2006 - Getting Started


This is a journal to my weight loss journey. I am excited, nervous, and anxious all at once. Since having my beautiful three children (Aidan age 4.5, Lydia and Lilly age 2.5) , I have gained over 100 lbs. I have also developed a number health issues, and I now realize I must loose this weight in order to help gain my health back.
Last week on Thursday, June 29.2006, I joined both Weight Watchers(WW) and Curves. I had a pretty good week with WW , although two bad days, where I did not keep within my point range. However, I have been going to Curves pretty religiously. As a result I did manage to loose 1 3/4 lbs . Which I was thrilled with.
As I journal, I plan to also put pictures of myself for every 10lb loss as well as monthly to show my progress. My ultimate goal is to loose the 100lbs by summer of 2008. This will be the year that I turn 30 and graduate with my masters in Health Administration.
I also plan to keep up with this journal so I can always go back and look at where I have come from, also to give me inspiration.
