Introduction Text 2012 was major roller coaster for me. I am at my highest weight ever- 254 pounds! I always said I would never reach 250 pounds well here I am. I am in my early 30s, a mother of 2 sons & became a wife in April 2013 . I reside in Peachy Atlanta, GA as of May 2013! I had lost 60 pounds & got down to 160 pounds but gained all of it back & now in a size 20 (surprisingly again! NOT REALLY a surprise)!! When I started my journey back in 2005 I was a size 20. I am almost busting out of a size 20. I kept majority of it off for about 2 years.. I am living 2013 WITHOUT EXCUSES!! In 2010, I lived life with Excuses & just gave up after September. I gained nearly 40 pounds in over 6 months. That is just insane, at the rate I am going by the end of 2013 I will be well over 300 pounds (well not going to let this happen) New Beginning & New ME!!! So now I take my life back into control!!! I will be glad to have back control over my life. I no longer complaining about it But I just have to do it!! I am a very upfront person & don�t like to beat around the bush! I honestly have a PROBLEM WITH FOOD!!! I am ADDICTED TO FOOD (SWEETS)!! I am tired of being the overweight! This year~ I say goodbye to my size 20s for once & all! *********************************** ***My FAV Quotes*** "When you feel like QUITING think about why YOU STARTED!!"

No ONE can Do it for YOU but YOU. So if you DON�T like SOMETHING, CHANGE it; if you can�t CHANGE it, CHANGE the way you think about it & see CHANGE OCCUR!� �No ONE Can Buy You Motivation, Ultimately Only You Can Find that Motivation & Push YOURSELF!� �Stop Talking About It & Start Taking Action!!� �You Will Make The CHANGES You NEED When the PAIN of STAYING Where You Are Becomes GREATER Than Your FEAR of CHANGE!!� *********************************** ****** Weight Loss Tracker ****** ****** 2015 ******* Jan. 6: Broke My Leg & on Monday, Jan. 5 I weighed 253.0 So I won't be able to weigh in for a long time since I can't get on a scale.

To final have self control & have willpower over food. I am determined to lose this weight & get to 165 pounds in 2016. To take back control of my life, go into my 30's feeling & looking great & not worrying about still trying to lose weight but just living a healthy life!!!

Cut back on unhealthy carbs. I am eating fruits twice a day along with veggies for lunch & dinner. Need to kick the cereals, chocolate cake slices, chips addiction!!! My plan is 5 days cardio & 2-3 days of weight training.
