I am 29 years old, a teacher to little kids, and finally taking control of my health.

I've always struggled with my weight, never being obese but never being skinny either. I have gained 20 pounds since I got married four years ago, and even then I could have stood to be 20 pounds lighter than that. I've tried every diet fad out there, only to fall off the horse time and time again, unable to stick out the routines or to control my cravings. My motivation and willpower were weak.

I've decided I'm tired of disliking photos of myself, of hating my reflection in the mirror when clothes don't fit right, and of trying to hide my middle by pulling in my belt tighter. I'm tired of being terrified of beaches, and feeling bad about myself when I see other girls who are fit and unafraid to flaunt what they have in bikinis. It's time to take control. I have forty pounds to lose, and a whole bunch of self confidence to gain.

And this time, I'm not quitting until I get there! :)

I am also blogging my journey here:
