Losing Weight
I've been struggling with my weight for awhile now. When I was pregnant with SaVonni I gained 85 lbs. Then had LJ 17 months later. I was starting to lose weight for awhile but then got pregnant with Joseph. It's been really hard for me because I've always been at a size that I loved. I don't like taking pictures because I don't like looking at myself, we only have two family pictures since 2003. My excuse has always been "I'm so busy with work, kids, husband, church and everything else I don't have time to eat better or to exercise". Well - I'm over it. I'm tired of being fat. I started a lifestyle change this week. This is my fourth day and I've been doing great. I feel so much better already. I've been eating way better (no more cookies, cake and chocolate). Everynight after work I've taken the kids for a walk. I really feel a big difference (and it's only been 4 days). So I'm asking all of you to help encourage me and ask me how I'm doing. I don't like telling anyone how much I way but here goes.....211 lbs. My goal is 150 or so. I will keep everyone updated on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Wish me luck!!

Don't you wish that having kids didn't affect our bodies and that we could have the same body we did in High School forever!!! Even I am struggling right now. I can't believe how different things are after my second shild! Good luck though...stick to it and just remember the outcome-you will look and feel so much better and be so much happier!!! (I know, easier said then done) You will do it, I just know it!!
Ra I want you to know that you are so great and you have and will always be the apple in my eye. I love and appreciate you the same way as I did the first day I we got together. You are a great wife, mother and partner in the ministry. It's good to see you dream again. Hey I love you girl. I believe in you. You have been able to work, have children, work in the church and aggravate the greatness in me just enough. Now the same hope you have given away so freely in me and others you shall receive now. I believe you see who people are when they are uncomfortable. We have seen the real you. You have stayed faithful in church and in marriage. It's been tough but you kept holding on. I am proud to have you as my wife. You make my heart smile.
This is my love letter to my wife today !!!!!!
Hey Ra, I think its amazing what your doing, let me know how you are doing! Just know you are always beautiful. Think of the things you do in comparison, work, raise three children, work hard giving back to the community. I know you will reach your goal!!!
Love ya
Good Luck! I started a graveyard job and I've gained 10 pounds. It's just so hard when it's not just us to worry about. I just put a t.v. and toy's and whatever they need and get on my eliptical right when I wake up to get that over with for the day if i can 4 times a week. Just explain it to them they will aventually just get used to it. You are so beautiful and I know you have great enthusiasm and energy you were alway's so fun and energetic to be with.
