I am a 30 year old single mom with two wonderful boys. I go to school on line for Business. My classes are accelerated which means twice the work, half the time it takes to get the degree, and a lot of hard work. As I sit and think on what the Lord told me awhile ago through someone else, He gave me revelation about it, I am no longer spinning, things around me are no longer fuzzy or blurry, but I am at that point when you stop spinning and you have to stand still and wait before you can move. The point where you have to focus; or in this case hyper-focus.
I am in the fight of, and for my life; Mentally, physically, emotionally, and most of all spiritually. I have to have balance by any means necessary, and that means putting God first in everything I do, even trying to lose weight. I am determined to make things happen in my life, I have something to prove, not to any one else, but to myself.

Taking a page out of some one else's book, I thought about what milestones i want to celebrate (thanks Mel). I know for me it doesn't count until i pass those first 10 pounds so i am going to celebrate aevery 10 pounds I lose:
Starting weight 255lbs (7/2010)
1st celebration 245 -
2nd celebration 235 -
3rd celebration 225 -
4th celebration 215 -
5th celebration 205 -
6th celebration 190 -
Although I know that this is not my goal W8 I
will do a self evaluation and decide to continue
on my journey to 175, or to maintain a W8 of 190.
7th celebration 180 -
8th celebration 170 -
The number 8 does mean new beginings!
