READ MY NEW BLOG!!!

I am hosting a new Radio Show called "Special Children ~ Special Parents"....
Come and listen and even call in to talk...

I am glad that you are here. 

I am a 36 year old single mom of the two most wonderful boys that I can imagine having.  I have been overweight most of my life and one time before I lost about 30-35 pounds, but after two kids, I gained that back, plus much more.  This is the heaviest that I have ever been and I am not comfortable in my own skin.   

I have learned of a class here in my hometown that I have heard just great things about.  It is a class that teaches how to eat based on the food pyramid.  It is a 12 week, 1 hour per week class.  A workbook and Calorie book are included in the class.  If you would like to check out more about this class you can go to their website at The LifeStyle Company .  (you can also get your daily calorie amout on this site too)  I won't be starting that until January (next class starts then).  I ordered The Firm and I will start that as soon as I get it so that I can get started some on my own. 

Here you will find my Blog (where I will keep my online Journal of my journey), my Guestbook (where, YOU, the guest can leave me messages, Pictures (of me and my progress and My Family has pictures of my family and friends) and I will also include my meeting weigh-ins.  Yes, I will include in this site my actual weight on the days of my weigh ins.   

I have also made my blog to where anyone can comment on a post that I make.  I have had a couple people ask why they couldn't comment, so I have made it so that now you can! :-) 

I hope to add recipe pages and more as I go...but right now, I just have to keep it simple and supportive for myself so that for once in my life I can accomplish this goal. 

I have been asked to add a chat room for everyone to come talk.... so here it is...CHAT ROOM

One brief note to the rest of my family and friends.  Thank you to the ones that have supported me and told me I am beautiful, even when we both knew that wasn't so... and to those that think "She'll NEVER do it.... "  I AM GOING TO PROVE YOU WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!  To my kids, I am going to make you a mommy you can be proud of...

Also, THANK YOU to all of those that sign my guest book and send me an email.  I love to hear from you.  It really does help to know that people actually read this site.  Thanks!!!
