Yes a rather exciting title, I know, but there it is...

Alright I think I may be completely candid here..I am a single mom who currently is out of work since I have been laid off from a not so exciting job as a customer service rep.  I have decided to take advantage of the government funded program to pay for a college education and am about to start my 3rd semester in HR.  I am also a rather large woman... being that I am starting over with my education and trying to better my life I have decided that I would like to lose the weight as well..I am hoping that since I  have decided to blog about it then I would actually be accountable this time and actually lose some weight!!  Quite a novel idea don't you think? Currently I am approximately 237 lbs--- I would like to be 140 lbs  that is a total of 97 lbs to lose.

On a weight lose journey where does one start? I have joined a gym (last may) and I think I went all of 1 month...so what do I do to keep myself motivated? That is what we will determine during this blog (I hope).
