Guidelines for followers on this blog

This is the guideline following this blog: No one will stay if they are rude, arrogant and just a looker. This blog is for supporting one another on a life long committed journey. Encourage one another. My blog is a no carb/ low carb group and that is what the focus will be here. I for one have no desire to be skinny; or even on the thin side. I am a full figured woman and like having some fat and meat on my bones. Even though I have gained weight, I still hold a shape and I like the way I look. I just need it to a healthy and a smaller me. This is not a blog for lap band users, binging and vomiting, anorexic, or body builders. It is definetly not a group for woman that choose to not be real women....we are not girls; so please NO DRAMA. All trolls will be tossed and held in chains!!LOL ONE MUST NOT BE AS BIG AS THEIR REFRIGERATOR! STARTING A LIFE CHANGE 1/1/10 SHOCKED:{ 245 LBS....UNBELIEVABLE! Rather than aiming for being perfect, just aim to be little bit better today than you were yesterday.

HELLO AND WELCOME TO MY BLOG PAGE

I am so ready to start this life change. Not a diet; but a real life change. The last time that I was on this life changing journey was in 2004; and I lost 67 pounds within 4 months. Then I was hurt really bad and couldn't do much but sit, see my neurosurgeon and orthopedic doctors, lots of physical therapy and little to no movement; and we all know what that will do to a body. I gained and just kept gaining.

Now with a New Year soon to be here ~~~ welcome 2010 ~~~ I am ready to start to become the me that I know that I can be.

We might lie and deceive ourselves; but, believe me ~~ PICTURES NEVER LIE along with us!

I have my plan and I am ready to begin on the 2nd of January. I am going to try and post a monthly photo and I know I will see the difference for myself. I know because I was on my journey and then was side tracked ~~~ sucker punched so to speak. This really works and now I am ready!!!
