When I woke up this morning, I felt it was going to be a good day. My youngest one was over his 1 1/2 day cold congestion, everyone was up and smiling, getting ready for the day. My husband had gotten a free podometer from a health fair, so I decided to wear that on me to track & see how much walking I do in a day. I went to the YMCA and signed us up for a family membership- but couldn't use my membership until they put us in their system.

The only bummer was getting on the scale to see my true weight. I cannot believe that I am going to put this out there in Internet-Land, but like I said earlier, I am getting out of my comfort zone. If I am going to do this, I need to say it, acknowledge & change from it to make me better. So long story short, drum roll please............328 lbs. WOW!!!!!!

I cannot believe that I let myself go that much. I am carrying around another person every day. Now I know why I feel tired a lot, that my body aches when I do things. I sound like I am an old woman, but I am only 30 yrs old. But I can't let myself get down.......I have to know where I am starting from so that I know where I need to go. My goal is to get down to 175 lbs. I guess I need to lose my other person- let's call her Lola!

Later today, I went to Winston (about 45 mins from where we live) to try and find new bedding for our daughter's bedroom. With no luck finding what I was looking for, I decided to go to the sporting goods store & got all the stuff that I needed for tomorrow.....It is swimming day!!!!! Swimsuit, goggles, fins, earplugs. I am so excited about tomorrow. So I will talk to you all tomorrow for Day Three. Wish me luck!
