I decided to start my weight loss challenge early. So today is Day 1 for me. I had a little motivation added to it for me. My husband has decided to challenge me and do it with me! So, the race is on. I am really excited.

I need to also explain where I am coming from on this. It isn't just the weight....it's my over-all health. I have 9 children. I think my body is drained of anything good for itself! For many months now, I have been having pressure in my chest and difficulty breathing. My blood pressure has been through the roof, and some days I have NO energy. I have been to the dr. I even spent a night in the hospital b/c they thought I was having a heart attack. All my tests came out ok, they are relating it to stress, so wanted me to take anti-depresants. I don't want to go that route. So my husband and I have looked into some health issues and found some products we are giving a try.

With all that, the weight loss will be an added benefit to having my energy and health back. I am over-weight by about  55-60 lbs. So my journey begins today!!
