I've determined that my weight has kept me from lots of things throughout the years. I'm working on the weight now...but I'm trying to be more comfortable with myself and not let my weight keep my family from doing things. With that in mind, I've been taking my daughter swimming at the lake. Buying a bathing suit about killed me. I got one of those all black, skirty looking suits. It's not too bad. I felt better when we went to the lake and I saw people my size wearing bikinis.

This week, I'm planning on taking my daughter to an amusement park. I am a nervous wreck! I just know that I won't fit on any of the rides. I want to have fun with her. I've invited my niece so my daughter will have someone to ride things with...I just don't want to go and be miserable.

Next year...when I'm skinny...I'm going to DisneyWorld!

I'm very PROUD of the decision you made to love yourself! It will go a long way to fostering your new healthy habits.

Good for you! My mom taught me early to not let it get to me on vacation, those people will never see you. Enjoy your fun and love yourself! You're awesome for taking her!
