Here we go...

So this is my first blog on my journey to saving my life. When I say saving my life, I guess I mean that in more ways than 1. Yes, I am losing weight, exercising, and changing my diet to help save my life from diabetes, heart disease, and other illnesses that run rampant in my family. But I am also saving my life from days of not enjoying activities with my family and friends, days of wearing solid color shirts EVERYDAY because I don't feel comfortable with anything busy or bright for fear that I will look like the side of a barn or worse. Saving myself from 2 pairs of shoes that I wear all the time because they go with my boring wardrobe when deep down inside I want to wear these....



By the way, those were from kmart.com (crazy I know).

The point is, there is a hot mama burried underneath years and years of physical and emotional weight. I hope that by shedding these pounds I will be able to truly find out what it feels like to buy the clothes and shoes you want, run down the beach with my kids, finish a 5K, 10K, or whatever without FEAR that I am not good enough. I hope you will join me on this ride if nothing else I like to post pics of hot celebrities every now and then so those you won't want to miss :)
