  to help flush out the toxins in my body.I've also

  been drinking China Slim Tea also after every 

  meal.  

~ Walking at 5 am while family is sleeping. 

  Walking after dinner. started with 2 blocks

  now going walking four blocks.(slowly but surely)

~ Keeping a food journal and watching my portions. 

~ Since I've been short on cash I will start on these 

  workouts that I purchased and have never started or

  started and have never finished.

~ Now serve/eat dinner at 5 or 6 pm. 

~ Have cut sweets, will treat myself with a little piece (miniatures, no candy bars)

   if I've been great. A little piece is better than denying

   yourself and then overdoing it later. 

Modern Mom Challenge

I've joined Modern Mom Challenge and am so
excited to finally start shedding this weight.
I unfortunately climbed up to 296 pounds
by the time October rolled around this year.
Since then I have been slowly trying to get
back down. I currently weigh in at 281 right
now. My ultimate goal weight is 180.
I am not in any Weight Watchers or Jenny
Craig programs right now. So I have just
cut my portions and eat in small plates,
drinking alot of water & China Slim Tea
1 bag per cup after every meal . I've
been asking my husband after dinner
to watch the kids in the evening while I
go walk about 2 - 4 blocks. I've had to
start sleeping in my walking clothes
and have my walking shoes next to the
bed so I have no excuse to not get up
early at 5 to go walking..lol..
