| Introduction | I am a fifty-two year old wife, mother and grandmother. I never struggled with my weight until about ten years ago, and since then I have tried just about everything to try to lose it. What started out as a ten pound weight gain turned into a hundred pound weight gain. Wow!! My children have each sat me down and expressed their concern about what this extra weight is doing to my health. I promised my son Dallas I would lose it while he was serving an in the Washington Tacoma Mission, but two years flew by without any weightloss. When my son Adam left in October, 2008 for the Mexico Leon Mission, I made the same promise. I had two years to get this done, but I down to about four months. I have lost forty pounds to date, so I have sixty more to go. That is a daunting task that might not be completed by the time he arrives home, but I will be well on my way. As I watch my little granddaughters and my little grandson, I want to be around to see them grow up. I want to be able to play with them and take them on long walks. This is one of the most difficult things I have ever had to do, but I must do it and I must not let myself get distracted. |
