Hey everyone! Happy to report that I'm still working on my Plan - lose weight and improve health through raw and exercise.

I'm officially at 2.5 months and there's certainly LESS OF ME taking up space here on Planet Earth today vs. January 16th! Yippeee! :)

I've lost 12 lbs and.........drumroll pleeeeze....20.25 inches in total!

4.5 inches off my waist! I am now able to wear cute T-shirts and blouses and not having to "cover up" da big Buddha Belly anymore. Yay! :)

Ok, so I'm celebrating the success, yes....but I KNOW I still have a LONG WAY TO GO before I'm where I need to be. My progress is (truthfully) going a bit slow with constant plateaus. Something is not on track.

I'm asking for help. Time to call in the Big Guns.

I'm meeting with a personal trainer today at noon. We had a good phone conversation yesterday and I was clear on what I want to achieve. She was even more clear on what I'm going to have to do. She said there will be times I won't like her very much. Wow. Ok. I'm committed. WHATEVER IT TAKES!

Ha, I say this now. Let's see how I feel when I have to lay my toothbrush down and run my teeth across it because I'm so sore. Or when I go "OOOOOOOOooooh, AAaahhhhhhhhh, Owwwww" bending over to tie my shoes. hee-hee
