Hello! Thank you so much for having me – I feel so delighted and honored to be with you! I’m blogless – but let me tell you – I’ve enjoyed y’alls for months. And thank goodness for bloglines!
My name it Kat and I am fat. See? I can rhyme! Let’s just dig into the nitty gritty, shall we? I weighed in at 330.5 this morning. Yes, you saw that number correctly. I am 5’10 and I need to get back down to 150 lbs. – which was pre-pregnancy weight. I was fit and trim until our first blessing came along 7 years ago, which is when the weight started attaching itself to my body.
It is sad to think I have procrastinated 7 years to do something about my fatness. But, the time is here and I praise God for bringing me to it. It has been a cycle of selfishness and sin, and coming to the end of myself.
I will be doing South Beach Diet and Greer Childers Body Flex for exercise (until I can incorporate more cardio). I started last week and while I didn’t weigh when I started, I did measure 6 specific areas on my body and have lost 8 inches in 1 week.
I look forward to being around each one of you and look forward to your successes and mutual encouragement.
-I want to be fit (loose 180 lbs)
-I want to be able to make family time enjoyable for my wonderfully fit family and not be a ball and chain.
-I want to be able to show God working through me as He leads me through this journey. And to be able to share that with unbelievers and believers alike.
Signing out-
Kat, 26, 5’10 and 330.5
