Each week I will be honest and lay it out there ~ what I did right, what I did horribly wrong, and what my goals are for the next week. I really appreciated all of your comments and heartfelt words of encouragement on my journey to this point. Please keep them coming, because I know that I struggle to attain a better body image and I can admit, your words help me rebuild my self-confidence. If you see something that I am doing wrong or have a better way of doing something, please let me know. I love feedback!

I felt pretty good this week – I actually looked in the mirror and didn’t run screaming from the room. I really tried to make going to the gym a habit and to go even when I really didn’t want to. I was honestly surprised and touched by the amount of people that read my first blog on my weight-loss journey Now Weight a Minute ~ it was read 578 times!! I hope you stay with me through this, I hope I stay with it too! Until we meet again next Sunday…
