Welcome and a Short Introduction!

Lots of new faces here today thanks to Sunshine sharing my story with others! I thought I would take a minute to catch up with all my new friends!  My name is Kari.  I am 36 years old and I live in Mitchell, Indiana. I am married and have two boys, ages 11 and 13.  I started this blog to help document my journey from being an overweight, out-of-shape loser to becoming a winning loser.  I joined Weight Watchers on November 1, 2012.  I weighed in at a whopping 402.2 pounds.  I was so embarrassed! I knew I was obese, but to be over 400 pounds was another thing.  Since then I have lost 84.2 pounds. I LOVE this program.  It has become a regular part of my everyday life.  I want to use this blog as a public accountability tool for myself, as well as a hope to inspire others who are struggling with their weight.  Being fat is not easy.  There are embarrassing moments every day.  I want to become healthier for my husband and my children.  They deserve a healthier, happier mother and wife.  On this blog, I will write about every part of my journey (even the negative parts).  I am tired of feeling embarrassed about who I am.  I hope you will join me on this journey so we can become an encouragement to each other.  Feel free to read some of my older posts to see the things that have already occurred o my journey!!

Keep Losing,

Kari
