I got on the scale last week and was mortified to see that it read 271 pounds! My husband had decided a few days earlier that he wanted to start a low carb diet, so I figured, what the heck. I am on day 5 of my diet and have already lost 5 pounds

Go figure, my husband has decided that he can't do the low carb thing, he's just too hungry. Huh .. just as I had progress. Oh well, I shall continue on my own =o)I've always been over weight ... as long as I can remember. My mom was a large lady, herself, and sadly, she died suddenly in her sleep 9 days after her 49th birthday. It's time for a change. I won't do this to myself or my kids any longer. I want to be able to play football with the boys or play tea party with my daughter without fear of breaking the tiny chair.
I'm sorry for rambling on. I'm just so happy that it feels like I won't be doing this alone anymore.
