I start the Induction on 6/6/03. I am pumped about it but I am also a bit scared. I really want this to work. I know it is going to be tough since I will still have to cook the "no no" foods for my dh and dd. My biggest problem will be the sweets,breads and starches. I know once my body gets used to it I will be fine though!!!
My first goal is to have lost 20# by the time school starts back this year. That will be Aug 8.That gives me 2 months to do it!! I will not be working during the summer so I will be able to get out and do some walking also.
My next goal is to make the 50# mark. I do not have a big timetable on that but January would be nice. I will be happy with this amount of loss but I would still be considered overweight and possibly obese.
When I make it to the 50 mark I will then concentrate on another 25 - 50 lbs. My 25th class reunion will be next summer 2004 and my classmates have never seen me slim. I would LOVE to show up and have them in shock!!!
Most importantly I have a 5 yr old dd that is my life and I want to make sure that I am around to teach her about being a good girl and to see her grow up into a remarkable young woman. I want her to be proud of the way I look and I do not want her to be embarrassed of her fat mommy. I want to instill in her good eating habits also so that she does not have the struggles I have had in my life.
Wish me luck!! June 6, 2003 here I come!!!!!!!!!!!
