This is it! After all these years, I am ready to commit. I am rolling up my sleaves and I'm gonna do what needs to be done to get this weight off me once and for all!!

I want to love myself again. I want to see myself for a sexy woman and not just some overweight housewife. I know what it takes, and I'm ready to walk the walk.

I believe that I need to start off slow and build habits along the way. I'm going to start off with 2000 cals and a mile walk and then build from there.

My 1st goal is to lose 25lbs by the time my girls go back to school at the end of August.

WOOT, great timing Korrie :) I'm back as of this week and I also am making a committment. I know I've tried and fallen off the wagon before but this time I have this feeling its now or never. So its going to be a battle, won a day at a time but we can do this even on days we're not feeling it. *hugz* ~Lisa
 
Hey Lisa!!! Glad to see one of the "oldies" back!! Are you reopening your diary? I appreicate the support hun :) Lets rock this once and for all!!
 
Actually my old diary, although a learning experience, was full of whining and excuses, lol. Plus so many friends gone from it was sad so I thought it time to make a new one. Have you seen Ruby Gettinger's story online? I stumbled across it and loved her motto so I used it for my new diary. I'm going to go look right now and see though if you re-opened yours or started a new one :)
 
Ok well now I just feel stupid :D I just saw your post under new topics and realized its in the diary section after my last post so this IS your new diary, lol. In my defense I was up all night at work and just got home no sleep....so yea thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it :biggrinjester: But seriously, I REALLY am glad to see you because I need some familiar faces around. This is going to be a long journey and glad to know we don't have to do it alone.
 
Korrie, when I was here in this forum before you were always one of the most supportive people here. Your words of encouragement at the right times, sharing what you were going through, or even standing up to well meaning idiots got me through some rough spots. So I'm gonna put you in the hot seat :D I am really excited that you restarted your journal and we need to see your posts as much as you need to post them so stick with this!! I've made up my mind that I'm going to be a one woman cheering squad for a few people and you're one of them! You're one of those caring people that's always there for everyone else. Well I know I'm not alone in saying we're here for you too!
 
Hi Everyone!!! Thanks so much for the support!!! It means alot to me!

Lisa, I appreciate your comments! I know what you mean about only making it to a few select diaries! When this forum first started, it was small enough that everyone got to everyones diaries, lol Now, its just way too overwhelming even to consider it!

I know I havn't been here to respond in a couple of days. My life has been crazy busy. I have 2 sister in laws that are both pregnant.....well, the one SIL, is having alot of issues and the baby will have to be taken early....they are running daily tests to find out exactly when they will take her. They are trying to give her as many days as they can before it becomes very neccessary....but it will more than likely be this week....

Then my OTHER SIL actually delivered her baby today...full term....so between the 2 SIL's I've been living at the hospital, lol

Today I managed to make it to the store and bought lots of fresh veggies and fruits. I decided my plan of attack here is to be as prepared as possible. I'm going to keep everything as cut up and in containers and ready to go...as possible.
 
Hi Korrie, just wanted to say good luck with the weight loss!! Hope it goes well and that the 2 SIL/babies do just fine :D
 
Hey Korrie :) Gratz on being a new auntie, 2x, lol. That's kinda cool actually because the kids will be close to same age as cousins. Glad you found some time to make it to the store. See you when it's not so hectic! *hugz*
 
Hi Lisa! Thanks for stopping by!!! It has been pretty crazy. My one SIL is still in the hosp. They just cant' get her BP down (side effect of her preeclampsia I suppose). So yea, lifes been a bit different, just trying to be available to everyone.

The diet is going ok....I need to just start making myself a priority.

BTW...this is a pic of my newest niece, she was born this past week at only 2lbs 6oz

Hey Korrie! Just had to swing by as I know your name from previous rounds with WLF! (I used to be heathercb04. . . .I think!!) I'm so glad to see you still here for another go-around! I had to change the name, as I have a new last name (hence the heather "dee") and a new outlook! Congratulations on your new neice(s)!! I hope that the little one is doing well!

Awesome :) I love those kind of days. Thanks for posting the pic of your niece, so precious. And I know I keep saying it but thanks for all your support. It's been obvious to me for some time that you are a very caring, giving person and that's rare to come by these days. Just remember to take care of yourself too! *hugz* ~Lisa
 
Hey Korrie! I did indeed get married! :) Thanks for the congrats!!

Hope your day was as productive as it seemed to promise earlier!
