Main Goal

I'm going to stop looking at the mountain in front of me and put on foot in front of the other. What improvements and positive steps can I make in my life TODAY. I'm not going to worry about the 60 lbs I want to lose, I'm going to focus on the 1 or 2 I'd like to lose week to week. I'm also going to forgive myself and give myself positive affirmations everyday realizing I deserve better than I've been giving myself these past many years. I've met some fantastic people who want nothing more than to support me. I'm going to accept their support and encouragement... thank you all!

Previous Diets

You name it, I've probably bought it. However, much to my dismay, just buying things doesn't magically make the weight fall off. I've done Weight Watchers, which actually worked when i stuck to it but I'm not good at writing everything down; Dr. Phil's Ultimate Weight Solution and am now reading YOU: On A Diet. I like it, explains more the science of it all. I've also recently purchased the Alli diet pill (never took a one) and joined The Biggest Loser Club online. I'm still trying to get it through my head that just because I buy all of these things, I need to act on the advice, not just read it if I want the results.

Favorite Workouts

Treadmill, Exercise Ball, Biggest Loser DVDs and Jumping on the Trampoline with my son.

Things To Do Before I Die

See my children grow up and be successful; Have grandchildren and watch them grow; Retire comfortably and travel with my husband; Take our family on a cross-country trip in a giant motorhome to see our great nation and all it has to offer.

Favorite Activities

Playing with the kids; Walking on my treadmill and watching TV (I'm a TV junkie); Scrapbooking (when I have the time); Just hanging out with family and friends.

Favorite Music

I like all kinds. Country, Classic Rock, Oldies, Jazz, Classical, Pop. Almost anything... almost.

Favorite Movies

The Godfather Trilogy; My Big Fat Greek Wedding; It's A Wonderful Life; Christmas Vacation

Favorite TV Shows

The Sopranos; Biggest Loser; Project Runway; Workout; Clean House; Joyce Meyer & Joel Osteen ministries; MASH reruns; I could go on and on... like I said, I'm a TV junkie.

Favorite Books

Your Best Life Now; Into Thin Air

Other Interests

I wish I had more time to read. The older I get the more into it I am. I love helping and encouraging others. I'm also a huge animal lover. I have 3 cats and help rescues and local shelters whenever I can.

About Me

I'm a happily married mom of 2. I work part-time and enjoy my boys full time - they are the best! I love and value my family but have never made myself or my health a priority. I'm trying to get over feeling guilty about that and tell myself the healthier I am, the better mother and wife I'm going to be.

Nov 2007 is going to be a "rebirth" and a dramatic and positive change in attitude! I'm not waiting until the new year, I'm doing it now! Today!

On my "Journal" see The Four Lessons Of Life. I receive these motivational thoughts occasionally that are pretty cool and worth sharing. It seems that can be applied to many things in life i.e. weight loss. Wishing you success on your WL goals! ~bobi~

Hang in there, sweetie! You'll get there! You've come so far already!
