Opening statements.

Finally, I am fed up with this journey alone. I am bringing in a friend and together, we will get through this. My journey however is somewhat longer than hers, but still celebration together is a wonderful thing. I will keep this updated to the best of my ability and even if I get behind, I will update as often as I can remember.

Life gets busy and as long as the work gets done, it's still nice to see progress and track, with a weight loss buddy. This.Is.War... on weight loss! On fat, on stress and everything else that makes a woman's body gain weight and hang onto it something fierce.

I am starting this blog and going back into my weight loss journey (originally starting at 197) now as, 185 pounds.

Starting weight: 185 pounds.
Targeted end weight: 150 pounds.

Weight loss total goal: 35 pounds.

I would like to make a mini goal at this time. Halloween, I would like to be at least, 165 pounds. So, 3 months I would like to drop 20 pounds. Not impossible, but not a cake walk either!


Note: Normal weight for me was 161 before I packed on this weight, normal weight range for my height is 135-151 pounds. end goal is 150 pounds, but I would really like to keep going and at least 145 pounds, but that's extra. To just be in the normal weight range, the high or the low doesn't matter to me. I am not doing this to fit in some skinny jeans or impress anyone, I am doing this for myself, so I feel better, so I am healthy and so I can feel better about myself. It only matters how "I" feel when I look in the mirror.

Let's get started!
