Introduction

Hi all. 

I am on a mission to better myself one step at a time.  I am happily engaged to a man that makes me very happy.  I am a mother to my 5-year-old baby boy; he is my motivation to be a better person.  

I am currently a student at Institute of Technology (IOT) and I absolutely love it!  Of course I have days where I just want to give up, but I keep going and I make it through.  I have an amazing teacher and the best classmates you could ask for!  

My fiance just proposed in December and, being in school and only working part-time, I am on quite a budget.  However, I want to start planning my wedding and I can’t help but think how AMAZING it would be to fit into a dress AND feel beautiful in it.  That is why I am here.  

I plan on starting the 3 day military diet tomorrow! (therhotonfamily.blogspot.com/2012/08/3-day-military-diet.html)  I have never been SO excited to start a diet.  Actually I have never really followed a diet.  I would always say as long as I am eating better than I was that is progress… but that has gotten me NOWHERE!  So IT IS TIME! 

Please, if you have anything bad to say about this diet, keep it to yourself.  I am not trying to be rude, but I have read over this diet and it really fits me and my needs.  I will definitely miss my Starbucks every day, but I don’t have to give it up altogether (yet) and I am really really really excited to start and I would prefer to just not have anyone getting me down about it.  So PLEASE only encouraging words!  IF I fail (but I wont) then please feel free to throw in your 2 cents, but until then (never) please don’t discourage me about this diet! Thank you 😉

I am SO excited to start losing weight rather than gain!!!

P.S. Sorry about the dull appearance of my diary… Maybe one day I will do a little bit of experimenting to make it a little bit more fun! But right now I have to work and write a speech for class tomorrow!!!
