"What do I want out of life, and what am I willing to do to get it?"

It comes down to a simple question: 

"What do you want out of life, and what are you willing to do to get it?"

So, it's time for me to reveal it all.  I have decided to start this blog to journal my journey to a healthier lifestyle.  At 34 years of age, I am Overweight!  I can sit here and complain about how I have always been on the chunky side, and that this is my natural size, and I can sit here and make 1000 excuses on why it's difficult for me to commit to a healthier lifestyle since I have been doing that forever; but today, I am deciding NO MORE EXCUSES! 

I found the above quote online and I thought how simple, yet deep, this quote is.  I know what I want out of life.  And I am ready to take the steps to get it.  My blog will focus on my weight and healthy lifestyle.


I am vowing to allow my blog to make me accountable to myself to help me to attain my goal.  


My goal is to adopt a consistent exercise schedule and make better eating choices with the ultimate goal of significant weightloss.  This will help me reach my ultimate goal of aging gracefully without any ailments.  My great-grandparents are both over 95 years of age, and are blessed with full cognition, mobility, and independence.  They are still married and still flirt with each other, and still live alone in their home.  They are a great inspiration for me.  I pray that I will be Blessed like them.  


So with that, I say to myself again....
