So it begins...


     Here I am, at the beginning.  This is two weeks after my knee surgery.  Mom rented a scooter for me (which was a Bitch to get in and out of the truck by the way) so that we could still enjoy the semi-annual craft show Affair of the Heart.  Lately I have not allowed anyone to take my picture, however, seeing as how my friend Hillary insisted, and how I really wanted to get this blog going, I allowed it.  Most people don't realize I am 250lbs, or at least they act surprised when I tell them so.  Apparently I "carry it well"...REALLY?! 
     Anyway, on my 33rd Birthday I jotted down some goals i'd like to accomplish over the next year.  One of them was to lose 100 pounds, and the other was to start a blog.  So i'll use one to feul the other...GENIUS!  I will be attending Weight Watchers meetings and following their "Points Plus" system and once I finish my physical therapy, I'll get into work-out mode.
     Join me, or not, for the journey I am about to embark upon.  I promise to make you laugh, maybe cry, and provide any tips, tricks, or recipes that help me along the way. 
    
Always continue the climb. It is possible for you to do whatever you choose, if you first get to know who you are and are willing to work with a power that is greater than ourselves to do it. Ella Wheeler Wilcox
