So I heard about this new challenge on Chris Powell's Facebook page and since I'm such a big fan of both Chris and Heidi I decided why not give it a try.  After all - I have to do something!  My biggest fear is getting onto that airplane only to find that the seatbelt does not fit around me and I need to ask for an extension!!!!  When did I get so big??  How did I get so big???  It is very easy to place blame on raising my children alone working full time while having them involved in all sports possible.  Ya, I could do that but it wouldn't be the truth.  I mean it is true that I am a single mom of three boys working full time while having them each involved in playing sports all year, but it is not the reason that I became obese.  Obesity runs in my family...true.  But no one forced feed me all the wrong food at all hours of the day.  Let's admit it - I had no self control.  No motivation.  No love for myself.  Certainly no one else was going to tell me different.  Well, I'm done with all that!  I do love myself and I want to be healthy for myself.  Enjoy life and not just exist.  This is my first step is reaching that goal!!
