Weight Loss

Ok, so for those of you Weight Watchers gurus, I'm going to start a weight loss blog. Jen G inspired me to do it and I haven't taken the time this weekend, with Jacob's colonoscopy and all that.
I have to be honest. I feel fed up and determined. But I feel no confidence. I look at Jen G, Jen C and Candace with their pcitures and success. Deep down I don't feel like I can do it. I feel discouraged before I even start. But as my hard as# neighbor said, 'That's just another excuse." So, even though I doubt myself, I'm just going to go for it. I've been careful over the weekend but didn't really worry about points with everything going on.

Today I am going full force and I need all the help and encouragement I can get!

So what should I call the blog? I'm going to try to make a poll, just for fun. It's at the top on the right. I jsut came up with them super fast. Give me some suggestions!!!

I am all over mad cow on the mend. Weight loss is a scary emotional journey- one I feel like I will always be on. Our bodies and our hearts are mended as we wrestle with our weight. I am so proud of you Talitha. You can do this!! It is not going to be easy- but you can do this. Know that you are not alone.

Hmmm... good one Cyn. Once I get a rest (naptime most likely) I'll post about the whole day on momstinct.com But it went well. Still waiting on results.

Thanks momma ((hug))

I kinda like Downsize Me. But I really think it would be awesome to call it Talitha's Shrinking Ass.
Seriously though, I think it's great that you're fed up. I think you have to be to really be motivated. I know for me, it took seeing Candace's and Jen's blogs to make me mad. I was mad that I had "tried" in a very half assed way to lose weight, and that they gave it their all and saw results. I was mad at myself, but very motivated to change it. I'm excited to see your journey!

Talitha, I am very proud of you for taking this step. Girl...it was HARD work, but TOTALLY worth it to know that i am doing what I can to be healthy.
YOu can do it, too. There isn't anything different between me, you, or Jen. I did ALOT of prayin' when I was losin weight...I NEVER thought it would happen. NEVER. The result WAS ABSOLUTELY WORTH the pain and suffering (I felt like) I endured!
Love you girl. keep us posted.
