Reinvention...

Hello world,

I have been absent for quite some time. What is it with me and long absences...lol!  Anyhoo, I am back on the blog world spreading the message of longer and sustained health. as well, I am all about people finding their true path to happiness.  So, since the last time I posted I jumped headfirst into P90X and gave it 85%. I only give that percentage because I would go and give it my all. However, I was eating pizza and fried chicken... not all the time but enough that I was offsetting my potential progress.  I may have lost 5 pounds... yeah... just 5 after 90 days... [sigh].

So I put that to the side for awhile to get to the root of the issue. I knew that a diet was not the proper road to travel for me.  It is short, rocky, scary, and I usually get very lost.  thSo while feeling down I saw a commercial for Weight Watchers with Jennifer Hudson on it looking HOT!!  She was always beautiful and curvy but her transformation left me in awe.  After carefl thought I decided to take the bravest step I have ever taken.  I walked into Weight Watchers ready to face the music.  I stepped onto the scale holding my breath and saw a number that did not make me happy. However, I owned up to 216.  I made it a mission to never see that number again.  That fist weigh-in was on February 17 and now, on June 29, I weigh in at 197. It has taken longer than I wanted but it was natural and thre were times I slipped up but I am still going at it. I will continue to push forward until I reach my weight loss goal of 80 pounds.  So I hope you take the journey with me again!!
