Introduction Text I am doing this so that I can be here for my two gorgeous boys! My kids are my life, and I want to live to be with them! Everything I do is with their best interests at heart! So, I want to be here and I need to be healthy in order to do that! After losing 49 pounds between October 2006 and November 2007 and being my smallest in years, I have officially gained back every thing I lost and then some! I am so very disappointed with myself and those who looked up to me when I had great weight-loss. Today is 1/1/11 and this is the year for permanent change! I have to change my starting weight to be realistic. I'm more than the 188 I had on here now with all my weight gain. It's a big slap in the face and I'm ready to do this! I even changed my ticker to the mountain and the icon to the person running. These symbolize the mountain I have to climb to reach my goal not only of weight-loss but in life. To quote Miley Cyrus "There's always gonna be another mountain. I'm always gonna want to make it move. Always gonna be an uphill battle. Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose. Ain't about how fast I get there. Ain't about what's waiting on the other side. It's the climb." I know it may be a little tacky but it sure is a song that makes me cry every time. Life is hard but so long as we keep trying, we are climbing! I love you all!

My ultimate goal is to get between 120-125. I need to be below 141 to be on the normal side of BMI. Goals: I will be posting new goals soon! Need to think of realistic ones! In life, I just want to be happy. Things are really tough right now but I will make it through somehow. Exercise goal: SOMETHING must be done every day!

I need to get back to tracking my food every day and to stop eating junk! Exercise every day NO MATTER WHAT!

I'm in the northwest corner of Connecticut. Not much to do here! Single mom of teenager and a preschooler! (Yes, I'm crazy!)
