Here's the problem

Greetings to my family, friends and supporters,
Here's the problem....
In Nov. 08, I was diagnosed with a minor stroke and after a year and half of losing wight and getting into the best shape of my life, I have spiraled downward in health, weight and attitude. I have been thoughtfully preparing on how to regain the momentum and attitude needed to become healthy again and thought of combining several of my favorite things.

You are one of my favorite things! I love being on the computer and especially connecting with family and friends. If I am on the computer, I can't eat. And I can get off the computer and exercise when I am motivated after reading comments from you! I am not motivated by going to weight classes and paying big $$ for weight loss, going to gyms when they look at you as if you were a foreign terrorist for being overweight. So I am going begin by using this blog as a means of communicating my progress this year. Hopefully, you can support me by responding when you are available and feel moved to do so. Also, maybe it can motivate others to get onto a healthier path for years to come.

My mom always told people (when we were standing beside each other), "she's built like her Dad" and I was always very proud of that. The problem now is that my dad or uncles and aunts were never this big! My counsins can relate! A heart attack has already taken Bryon's life and affected others in our family, so I know this is a health issue...not a weight issue.

Join me and let's make it a great 2010!
