About Me

My Space or Yours? Myspace Layouts and more at myspaceoryours.net!
I am in the process of losing at least 110 pounds. I am over 3/4 of the way there. I will keep you updated in my blogs and pictures. I hope to be an inspiration to others and to also be inspired by the new friends I hope to meet along the way. Please join me on this amazing journey. I started in October of 06 after a bad blood test I was scared straight. My triglycerides were over 1100 which is a completely unheard of amount. My dad was sure that it was a mistake, if it was I am glad because it is exactly what I needed to get me moving. That day I cut out fat and sugar completely. I had another blood test after 2 weeks and my cholesterol had dropped 57 points and my triglycerides were almost normal. I workout 5-6 days a week. Hiking is my absolute favorite, I also love spin class, step aerobics and weights. I don't believe in diet drugs just hard work. I think that french fries and soda are the worst foods ever created, it makes me sad to see people poisoning themselves with that stuff. I used to love it but once you get it out of your system it makes you sick to look at it and there is not one nutritious thing about it. If I can give that junk up trust me anybody can! I was a stress eater and relocating and the 18 month illness and death of my mom were the triggers for my weight gain. I have learned to overcome that, thank God. I promised my mom the last time I saw her that I would get healthy and lose the weight! It took me 3 months to get started after she died but now I am well on my way.I can't believe the amount of friends and support I have already. It is quite amazing.AND IMAGINE Recall the things that have held you back. And imagine how you now can get beyond them. Think of the problems that have frustrated you so. And imagine how you can now rise above them. Look at how far you've come. And imagine how far you can now go. Think of all that you've learned. And imagine what you can now do with that knowledge. Consider all you've done in the past year. And imagine what you'll now be able to do. You're now in a better position than ever to imagine the very best. And what you can imagine will lead to what you can be. -- Ralph Marston
