Member Story?!!? Oh Geez, okay so here it goes. I just turned 40 and I'm fat. I don't like it and want to do something about it. My husband and I have poor habits and someone has to make that change. I'm starting with what I see in the mirror and hopefully it will encourage my husband to follow. I've had a life long struggle with food / weight / bulemia and I hope to nip this in the bud right quick! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
This letter is long in coming. In fact it kept me from blogging the last couple of days because I knew the next time I sat in front of this laptop it would be to hash out this letter and I have been a little apprehensive about writing something I had no idea how to start.

Confession time:
I'm kind of being a big baby today.
A combination of events over the past week have left me feeling angsty, emotional and just plain in a "f*ck off" kind of mood. Not just bad events either.

On Wednesday I went shopping with Valer...

I wanted to do a post about the positive things happening for me since losing weight.

It's two o'clock in the morning.
I can't sleep.
Apparently my body my mind decided it wasn't going to need much more than 2.5 hours of sleep and here I am waiting for 3:30a to arrive so I can get ready for my boxing class.
My mind won't shut down.
Let's talk about what the hell is going on in my world right now.
* I made goal weight this week: For the last 11 months I have kicked, screamed, laughed, cried, run, jumped, swam, fought, and poured gallons of sweat off my...

Two stand together.
Theyve known each other their entire lives.
Only ever Separated by fear.
Brought together by that same fear.
One afraid to live the life she was meant to live.
The other afraid to open her eyes to the possibilities.
One afraid to move forward and never look back.
The other afraid to let go.
One afraid to not have the other.
