So here I am on day one of the 14 day induction. I know I can do this and will feel so much better for it.

I am ready to put 2007 far behind me. It was a tough year in more ways than one. My main resolution for 2008 is to get healthy. Every year I resolve to lose weight. Not this year. I know that for me getting healthy means a low carb diet to control Fibro. The weight loss will be a nice added benefit.

Today is the first day of the rest of my life. I am going to make good use of it. First I will not let anymore junk enter my mouth...well at least not for this week. Can't commit to forever.

Share your gifts and talents
listen with your heart.
Do the things you dream about
but don't have time to start.

Pick a bouquet of flowers
show someone that you care,
Be gracious and forgiving
life is never fair.

Hold on to your courage
you may need it down the road,
We all have a cross to bear
it could be a heavy load.

If you practice all these things
no matter where you roam,
You may find both sun and rain
but you'll never feel alone.

I've lost over 100 pounds 4 different times. I'm ready for this to be the last time I have to lose a substantial amount of weight. I'm not quite 100 pounds overweight, but I have almost that much to lose. Yesterday,...
