It's a good thing we are calling this blog...Fabulous by Forty. It may take me 5 years and 2 months to get there, but I'm on the right track now! The only way I have been able to lose weight before is when money has been the goal with weight loss challenges. There is no money involved this time. Instead it's all about ACCOUNTABILITY-not only with myself, but with my friends, Jenny and Mandy. We are holding each other accountable not only so we will feel better in our clothes but also for our health. If we don't get it together now, we will be "Fat by Fifty"! As you join us as we take time to reflect on foods that we eat each day, please keep in mind that we are in no way going to be healthy all the time. There are going to be "those days" when we just have to live a little, enjoy life, and forget about what others may think! I can already tell you that Thanksgiving and Christmas will be those days, and there are going to be many more days like it in between. I also need to warn you that I LOVE to eat, and I'm a Junk-Food Junkie, but so far in two days I have been pretty good. We'll see how long this lasts!
