Round is a shape!

Am I in shape? Of course, we all are. Round IS a shape! Until now, that was pretty comical. Not anymore. There's nothing funny about being overweight, or in my case and according to the American Medical Association, I am morbidly obese. It's all a decision. I've made this decision many times before. NOW is my time to follow through.

I decided that although this is technically a blog, I am going to use it very differently. This is my diary, so to speak. This is my outlet for those things I can't say with spoken words...those things that make me cry, or that make me so angry. Or being the humble person I strive to be, maybe those celebrations that I want to shout from the rooftops, but know that 95% of the people who would hear it wouldn't even care!

Here's the deal...I have 5 days of researching, soul searching, goal setting and meal planning before I begin my 7-week challenge. Why 7 weeks? Because 7 weeks from Monday my family and I will embark on our very first, and possibly last, Disney cruise to the Bahamas! I know you can't really lose a ton of weight in 7 weeks, but I'm up for the challenge. Here we go!
