It's Been a Year

Hard to believe it's been a year since my life changing trip to Africa. It's been a hard year, a year of change, stress and unknowns. But as always God is faithful and He is seeing me through. Growing in my relationship God more than in any other time of my life.

I have struggled with trying to lose weight for the last 20 years. For whatever reason it has never worked for me. Now that my weight has started to show up in the form of health issues, I need to get serious about it. Found out I don't just have a few lbs. to lose, I have 70 lbs. to lose! Not a good feeling to hear that from your Dr.

Through the help of my best friend and my Dr., I have found a Dr. that specializes in weight loss. I went through all the pre-medical testing and have been cleared for the program. Happy to say, no surgery's and no drugs. Just a seriously ridiculous strict diet and lots of hard work. I have decided blog my journey over the next 6 months. It's not going to be easy and at times I'm sure it will be embarrassing but I'm willing to journal so I will have a record of how God has worked in my life.
