Entering the Blogosphere

Welcome.

This is all new to me, so bear with me as I figure this new computer thingy out.

This is a blog about me. But it may also become a blog about you. I plan on posting my journey through losing my baby weight and regaining my fitness level. That may sound very narcissistic at first, and well frankly, isn't there a hint of narcissism in any blog? "Here's a website about ME!!! And here's my stream of consciousness. Ready?!?! GO!" But truly, I hope this blog takes on the nature of a forum where women feel safe enough to share their experiences with body image, good or bad. Nearly every woman I know, whether she be a size 2 or a size 22, has some misgivings about her appearance. And I say NO MORE! It's time to turn the focus on who we ARE, not what we look like...

And here's my disclaimer:
I am not a therapist. Well, not THAT kind, any way. If you are having any feelings of despair regarding how you look or how you are perceived by the world, go talk to a qualified mental health professional. They are very nice. They have wonderful things to say about you. They will help you. Trust me, I have probably spent enough time and money on "the couch" to have a counseling degree, but I do not actually have one. What I share here comes from my heart and is a fit for me, but may not be a fit for you. So again, I say, if you are feeling despair or depression, get it checked out. Life is worth living, and living to the fullest!

HOORAY for blogs!!
