The beginning

After a lifetime of battling my weight, I am embarking on a program this Monday that- although is in fact a diet- I hope will be a life change once and for all. Watching family members struggle with diabetes, I have made up my mind that I need to put my health first. Sure, I've been here before, but I can't look at previous times as failures, no, I I will look at them simply as practice sessions! I have realized that I can't do it myself. So, I am starting Medifast, that includes counseling and a very specific program. I in fact have started my first blog ever, so that I might keep a record of the ups and downs of my progress! Wish me luck!
