I'm on my third day and it's going better than I expected! Nothing can detour me from my goal right now. I want to lose 100 lbs in 6 months. I'm 46 and I have a 4 year old son. He has been such a joy and blessing for me, but at 311lbs, I'm not being the best mom I can to him. We only have eachother, so it's imperative I get fit and healthy.

You are doing something remarkable, and giving your son an amazing gift - I'll be rooting for you!

Abby

Congratulations on your decision! Do you have a plan?

Yes, my plan is being here. Logging everything I eat, staying around 1200 calories and incorporating 1 hr exercise a day along with greentea, omega 3, and multivitamin supplements. No "cheat days", that would just be cheating myself and my son. I'm more determined than ever.

Thank you Abby! That's my niece's name and she's one of my favorite people in the world!
