Day 14 and I have yet to exercise. I ma starting Saturday for sure. Things have been a little out of sorts around the house, but now there are no excuses. If I don't start exercising, I wo't lose any weight. Not feeling very chatty, so that's all for now. I will update once I excercise, so I have something positive to report.

Day 5 - So really I just got serious this week about my eating. I did pretty good yesterday and better today. By the end of the week, I should have this thing licked... if only it were that easy. I'm staying positive because I now have a goal. My friend from work asked me to do a 13 mile walk for St. Jude in December. We will actually go there. I want to do that so badly. I am a big supporter of St. Jude. I know I would receive a big blessing from being there.

Here's to being strong willed the rest of this week.

Yippee, I have a follower. Thanks Kelly. I was thinking today that I would write in here no matter what, even if nobody else kept up with me. I am counting down the days until the big challenge begins. One more day to be bad. I know that is kind of silly to wait another day, but I don't want to feel guilty about messing up before I am ready. So, I will ring out the old year with a bang and get down to business in 2010. Not much to report today. It was a little hectic. I ate pretty okay, but drank way too much Pepsi. Yikes. Here's to a better tomorrow.

Bye for now.

So I did pretty well today, except the insane chocolate cravings. I ate light, but then had caramel nut brownies and a couple pieces of candy throughout the day. I am really trying desperately not to drink a Pepsi. I want to quit drinking soda by 1/1/10; this is when I go live so to speak. This week, I am doing better, but cutting myself a little slack. I need to get mentally prepared so I will be more successful. As I begin this journey, I found a verse that I want to focus on.

Philippians 4:7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Hello everyone. I am just testing this out. I want to thank everyone who is following my story. Your prayers and support mean a lot to me. I need to make this change in my life now, or I am afraid of what will happen later in life. It should be a fun ride.......... if the exercise doesn't kill me. Ha, ha
