WOW, I am back

Hey Everyone:

Looking back at my last blog it has been a very long time since I have posted any entries. I guess I figured once the Gold's Gym Challenge was done, I kind of gave up for a short period of time, but I have had allot of people ask when I was going to start doing my posts again.

So here I am... this blog is not for me to try and show that because I have lost 46lbs that I have the cure all knowledge for weight loss and/or fitness, because no one does, we each have to find our comfort zone. I guess you could say I am writing this blog more-less for my own selfish reasons , it helps me to keep in check what I need to do...it keeps me aware of what I need to do in order to continue on this weight loss journey and get to where I am comfortable and where I want to be. And also to help me learn and keep myself true to the woman I have become.

But I also am very interested in writing a book in the future, regarding the trials and tribulations women go through each and every day,whether it be parenting, work, school, friendships, dating, abusive or failing relationships and allot of the other things that I have been through that I know allot of other women go through. And to show that "We Can" survive.

I want women to know...."If I can do this anyone can".....I have survived allot through my 47 years, abusive love relationships starting in my younger dating years, up until my divorce 11 years ago. The loss of a baby, and also several toxic failed relationships. but it can all be dealt with and conquered.

All the failures(whether it be in love or just life in general) a woman can surpass all this and it has all made me the strong, confident woman I am today. would i do it all again? Well I can truely say when it came to relationships & love "HELL NO" I would have chosen the men I date or was involved with definitely in a different way, but thats a whole other topic for a future blog, LOL

Overeating and being overweight is not something any of us choose, when we are younger grow up we do not go around staying "I want to be an overweight/ a big person when I grow up" overeating and being overweight is like that of a drug addict or alcoholic.....it is a disease, and no one can make you want to lose weight or get healthy unless, you yourself is ready to make the change. And then after the choice has been made to do so, it has to be done in a healthy way. Overeating and unhealthy eating all stems from something, sometimes we ourselves are not even aware of...stress depression, etc

Well I knew I had a very long way to go, so after the summer, I am back and ready to roll. Of course the 2011 Challenge will start soon and I will compete again. But I have my own goals and dreams and I want to lose 60 lbs by June of 2011.

I hope you enjoy my blog and if there are ever anytime you want to ask me questions, please feel free to do so.
