Off to a much better start! How exciting!

After getting on the scale this morning I was electrified! Down to 234.4 pounds! I have officially gotten below the weight I was when I arrived at the hospital to have Lillian. Phew. It is officially down hill from here for me! Finally, I feel as if I am headed somewhere. Hopefully being on My Fitness Pal with my si-in-law will help to keep us BOTH excited and energized to get where we want to be physically and emotionally. Not only do I want to be in a smaller size, my ultimate goal is to be healthier and hopefully live longer. This way I can spend endless years with my family, my children. I would love for them to grasp the same desire to live healthy so that they don't have to fight the same battles that I have had all of my life. Just as Dave Ramsey urges us to change our "family tree" by being out of debt, I want to change my family tree by living a healthier lifestyle.
