Day 1

Today is day one of the biggest loser challenge and I am ready to go.  I warn you, I suck at blogging...so I will do my best here to post updates as well as many vents I'm sure. 

A little background info on me and why I'm here?  I am a 32 year old mom to 3 boys, ages 10, 8, and 5.  I was always average sized (130 lbs, size 7) until I became pregnant.  My weight sky-rocketed and I was up to 193 lbs a few years back.  I had breathing problems, and very little energy.  I was warned that I was at risk for diabetes and heart problems due to my weight and family history.  That scared me into finally taking the first step.  It took me a year but I managed to lose 63 lbs and bring my weight down to 130 again, where I successfully kept it.  That is until this past Fall when I got too comfortable with myself. 

I am now up to 145 lbs aagain, and while I am not "obese", I worry that my weight will continue to go up.  I refuse to let that happen.  Today is day one of starting over.  I will lose those 15 lbs (maybe more) and keep them off for good this time!  With the help pf a few good friends I am back on track.  Wish us all luck!
