I am now 38 yrs. old. I'm over 85 pounds overweight and have PCOS. Losing weight is an extra challange for me, due to the PCOS. However, I am becoming a firm believer that it's all in the attitude and frame of mind. I'm teaching myself to think positively and to believe my way to my ultimate weight. Losing weight will not be painless and I'm prepared to do what it takes.
My daughter is 2, now. My ultimate goal in life is to acheive my ideal weight within the next couple of years, via eating right and exercising, so that I can enjoy life and all the adventures it has to offer...right along side my duaghter.
I prayed many, MANY years to be blessed with this child. She is my own personal blessing from God. I feel, in my heart, that God said to me, 'Christina, it's your turn, now...' and gave me my daughter. I want to be the best example I can be for her. She lights up my life and I want to do the same for her.
I WILL reach my ideal weight! I WILL!

The evidence against Soy...
I found the following link to be rather informative and thought I'd share it. Apparently, soy isn't as good for us as we'd like to think.

This tells me I burn 2474 calories a day. So, in order to lose weight how many calories do I need to stay under per day?

CONFESSIONS!!!!
HA HA! Don't let the little evil monsters get ya down! Your 'sins' have been forgiven. lol
I think that having a 'once in a while' splurge is what keeps us from making it a 'regular thing'...

Trip to Vegas
Bully thinks she and I should join you for a girls weekend trip...however, my problem is that I work for a CPA and tax season starts Feb. 1st-April 15th. I can't leave during that time frame, unless it's over teh weekend and I'm home by Sunday.
