I have decided to take this blog in a little bit of a different direction. I have personally struggled with my weight for several years. I will still include informative posts that include weightloss tips, but I will also include more on my personal accomplishments and struggles with eating. I may even decide to post on this blog when I feel like eating a candy bar when I know I should really be eating an apple. Hopefully, this journal will help me and maybe somebody else have the strength and motivation it takes to reach their weightloss goals.

I am a 40 something women that is trying to lose 50 pounds. I had gastric bypass surgery 2 years ago and am struggling with the last 50 pounds. This online journal is going to document my thoughts and actions as I go through the process that will get me to my goal weight.
