Here's my last post from my other blog, I will be doing it from here from now on...:)
Great day so far--got up, worked out, took Rose to school, and now am home in the quiet as Emily naps. Rose is going to a friend's house after school, so I am free for a while! :) I realized that maybe I should explain my blog title--a hundred pounds is what I want to lose. I am laying it all out there, and am going to be honest in telling you that a few weeks ago, at my highest weight, I was at 260. I can't even believe I let myself get so far. That is almost more than I weighed at my heaviest for either pregnancy. It embarrasses me, it sickens me, it makes me not even want other people to look at me. But I am devoted now to a healthier life change, and I know I will slip and make mistakes, but little changes make a big difference over time, so I know eventually the weight will come off as I exercise daily and eat healthier. One huge step I took this morning--I threw away some cookies. I made a meal for a friend's family who just had a baby, and there were some of the not-so-perfect looking cookies left. (Cuz I usually only give the nicest looking ones away, I am anal like that.) So them I was eating them like crazy last night, almost to the point of vomiting. This morning when I went in the kitchen, I promptly threw the remainder away. I can't believe I did it, but I am glad I did!!! A million dollars is what I wish for my family to be making someday with our home businesses--me with my sewing, and Mark with his design and photography. I know that is more of a "wishful thinking" goal, but if you don't have wishes and dreams, what is there to look forward to and work towards? Well, off to clean the basement now...happy Tuesday everyone!

I am proud of you for being honest! I am praying for you, too.
Remember it doesn't cost anything to dream so dream big and who knows . . .
