Feeling heavy...

I guess I'm going to try out this blogging. I have always said that I'm not a great writer, nor great at expressing thoughts through written words. So please excuse all grammar mistakes that you may find in this blog. I hope this is a way for me to express some of my thoughts on my life happenings. So here it is... my first blog post.

It is amazing how easy it is to gain weight. All of a sudden I look in the mirror and see a whole new me, with an extra 20 lbs. I guess it is one of those things where you picture yourself looking a certain way, and even when you look in the mirror you still see that same person. As I went on my mission trip to Liberia, several pics were taken of me. (another blog post to share about that trip) When I looked at the pictures, reality slapped me in the face. This is really what I look like?!?! So I hope that I can get myself back on track. After my back surgery, I have just been extra cautious about things, which has allowed me to make excuses. Excuses are no longer acceptable now. I know that it just takes eating healthier and walking/exercising a lot, because I've done it before. My goal of course would be around 30 lbs, but I will gladly take 1 lb at a time. :)
