Hello Blogging World

I’m starting this blog because I feel like I need to write, I need to get my thoughts and feelings out on paper, letting everything fester in my head isn’t an option for me anymore.  First and most important I want this blog to be about my weight loss journey, the highs the lows all the good and bad times. I know me though, this blog will have way to much about myself and all the other personal things going on in my life.  I’m pretty sure I will also be sharing all the amusing things I find online and I need to share.


I truly feel like I am a thin girl trapped in a thick body. My first goal is to weigh 200 pounds by March 1st 2015.  This is about 30 pounds and mostly easy weight to lose because it was just put on these past few months.  Normally through the holidays it’s hard to hit that goal but so far it looks like I’ll be home alone so I can choose rather healthy food options and block out the holidays as much as possible.  In my younger years I was a slim 100 pounds, this morning I weighed in at 246.5.  This is down from my heaviest which was 292 back in 2012 but I have gained 30 pounds this year after the death of my fiancĂ© in February and working overtime 12 hr days, 7 days a week since April and is still going strong until November 20th.  I just re-joined the gym, I have my cabinets full of healthy-ish foods waiting to be cooked and internet access again with a working laptop!  I also rejoined Weight Watchers, I’ve never been a huge fan of points and tracking but sometimes it seems easier to know that I only have 30 daily points and I don’t want to use those as opposed to me justifying calories.

Please feel free to comment, share and follow me.  I do want to put that while I enjoy writing I’m not a writer/blogger, I will make grammar mistakes, please don’t be a hater!
