I have been lurking here for a month now, gathering information, inspiration and just a grasp of the overall community and I must say I am so impressed and encouraged!

I finally decided to join in on the board and share my story as it progresses!

I started this wonderful lifestyle Dec. 16th 2008 and I have to say as hard as I imagined leaving my sweet and pasta tooth behind it really hasn't been too bad! I even made it through Christmas time with dozens of cookies being baked and served! That alone let me know I really do have all the motive I need to get healthy.

Jan 6th makes 3 full weeks for me however the pesky monthly visitor has struck so I won't be weighing until next week for my updated progress!

I feel the need to say yet again that this diet is amazing! I feel like I am getting spoiled honestly! I had tried the 6 week body makeover 2 years ago and though I was able to stick to it for around 8 weeks it was the most miserable thing I have ever experienced, I hated eating food with zero flavor and it was so awful that at times I would just prefer to go to bed without dinner. Well never again!

I look forward to sharing this journey with everyone!
