I don't know how to start this entry except to start typing and see where it ends. As I have sat in church on Sunday and listened to the message about changing and renewing one subject resonates in my mind. In January 2006 I made the decision like I had done several times before to loose weight. This time was different. It was different because I came to several realizations, the most important being that I was on a path of destruction. When I started this process I told myself it was going to be different this time. I was going to succeed unlike my past attempts. Don't get me wrong, the last year has been successful, I have lost 40 pounds. However, I have find myself in a rut struggling to succeed. With all this in mind I have decided to take a different route. I have asked god to help me to change. I am seeking his guidance and strength to get me through the difficult times.

I imagine this is a subject on other peoples minds so I thought I would let you all know what was on mine....
