About Me

This is me at my start weight of 199lbs.


Well...where to start? This blog is about me and my weight loss journey for 2009.
To begin I will record my measurements. (SCARY)
Weight on Dec. 30/08 196.8lbs
Waist 38 1/4
Hips 43
Bust 39 1/2
Upper Leg 24 1/2 (this only 1 1/2 inches smaller than my waist when I was married in 1998.)
Ankle 9
Neck 14 3/4

I am committing myself to eating 80% raw starting today. There will be days that I am not on track with this and I except this so I will try not to be to hard on myself on these days.

I long for the healthy body I had....not so long ago!

I plan to use this blog to express my struggles, fears, challenges, hopes, successes & accomplishments. I will try to be as honest and straight forward about myself as I know how.

{ I was inspired to do this blog by reading a couple of other ladies blogs that are on the WW boards.}

    For me eating raw means I will only eat fruit, vegetables,beans, nuts, seeds and whole grains.

    I am avoiding all processed foods, meat, dairy and eggs.

    Thanks for checking out the blog!
