You Go, Girl

I have been battling weight for most of my ife. I am ready to take a serious and honest approach to my situation for perhaps the first time. I need lots of encouragement because I give up and give in at the first sign of less than perfect. The picture was taken in Juneau, Alaska while on vacation. I don't like seeing the roll at mid-section. If I think about the 100 pounds that I have to loss, I will get discouraged. This is going to be a journey of mini-goals.

My Goals:
I would like to lose the 100 pounds, but I am going to concentrate on mini goals of 10 pounds at a time and get throfguh the first 50 ppounds. My knees and back hurt almost constantly. I would like to be able to walk and stand without hurting. I need to be able to do the thrity minutes of walking that is recommended.

My Program:
 I am eating balance meals, watching my portions. I plan my meals and pack my lunch daily (still getting to 100%). I try to get in 30 minutes of exercise--this is proving to be a difficult goal. And I try to drink 8-8 oz glasses of water.

Personal Information:
I'm originally from New York/Boston currently living in South Florida. I have two adult children.

Other Information:
 Start by doing what's necessary, then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Thanks so very much for the flowers. I'm looking outside at snow up to the fence. It is beaautiful. I'm feeling better too. Hope you're doing well.

Thanks for your prayers, sister girl. This is so surreal. Just shoveled my driveway, so how could I have this illness? I'm hoping to wake up before Friday and realize it was all a dream.

I hope I don't jinx myself by saying so, but I've been able to keep things uncluttered so far. How are you doing?

Hello Mustang,
Thank you so much for the comments on my blog. I felt so blessed while reading your comments. You know Mustang, we are on this journey together. It's so hard to do it alone and why should we?, there are others here just like us who have been where we've been, struggled like we've struggled. That's one of the reasons I love this site. I support everyone here, but I seek out women who are close to my age with over 100 pounds to lose. The reason why, because many of them have walked a mile in my shoes. That is to say, they have similar experience with trying to lose weight. I am not 3 steps ahead of you at all, we are on the same fitness field and we are partners in making it to the goal line. I'm here for you and I know you are here for me. Let's keep going in 2010...together!

I am trying to de-clutter and I like to read (I have lots of books). Does anybody own a Kindle? You don't need a bookcase for a Kindle. How do you like it? A Kindle is an electronic book that holds many several hundred books and it is sold on Amazon.com.
