[TheJourneyStartsNow]

I joined 3FC this time last year, and was starting a serious weight loss journey. Well...that journey began & ended in about 5 months. By the end of May I had lost 50lbs, and had asked my husband to move out. I got divorced, and pretty much completely fell off the wagon. I managed to maintain all of my weight loss, because I did learn some great eating habits that I continue to practice. However, I completely stopped exercising. I was depressed, and lonely, and felt sorry for myself...and just stopped trying to improve myself. I saw my whole life as this big...scary...empty...nothingness...and didn't even think about my weight or what I wanted so badly.
Well, all seems to be well now. I'm healing everyday & recovering from my divorce. I've realized that I want to continue on with my journey. Before, it was for weight loss so my husband & I could begin trying to have children....maybe it was a blessing I fell off of the wagon!
Now my new journey begins....it started today. My new journey begins with a goal of happiness, and love for myself. I want to lose a total of 75lbs...and would like to see 50 of that gone by May...my one year divorce mark. I realize now I deserve a happy life, and a happy self image. What better time to start this than now...I have no one else to focus on but myself. I want to look & fee like a new woman come summer...then maybe I'll be ready to start dating again.

I love this website, and am so motivated by so many people each day I log on. Each of your are such an inspiration & a support for me.

Looking forward to my journey....
