I'm excited guys that I have taken this step to better myself. For a long time I put the needs of everyone else before my own and neglected my health because of it. I had to grapple with coming to an understanding that it doesn't make me a bad person to put myself first and that sometimes it's often necessary to do so for the sake of mental, physical, and emotional well-being. I am looking forward to this journey and all that it has in store, sharing my experiences, as well as gaining a few new friends along the way Please feel free to introduce yourself and add me if you like.

    We women always put our families first ahead of ourselves, but somewhere along the line we have to think of ourselves. I don't see it as being selfish, I see it as selfless cause if we are not in our best health, how are we suppose to take the best care of our families? If we don't take care of ourselves, who will? No one that's who. I have always taken care of everyone else, now it's time to take care of myself. At first I felt a little guilty but now I know it is my time. My kids are grown and having kids and I want to be the best grandma I can be and I want to be there for them for a long time. I could not do that in the shape that I once was. Keep up the great job and don't ever feel guilty for putting your health first, you deserve it.

    Thanks. I get that now. It took a while for me go grasp, but finally, I GET IT. I'm doing this for me, but the overall benefit spills over into the lives of my family members and loved ones who want to see me live a long, happy, productive life.
