Here I go.....

Wow first time blogging wondering what I am doing....I want to start a blog to document my life style change. I Nancy Johnson have started a new chapter in my life. I have moved from a toxic environment into a better environment for me and my spouse. I want to now change my eating habits and start getting healthily. I am starting this journey at 290lbs. WOW I can't believe it. I have really allowed depression and anger get me to this weight. I am starting this morning with a change in perspective and out look on life. I was chatting with my cousin today, (who is also like a sister to me) and I realized I needed to quite comparing myself with those around me. My relationship with my spouse is my own, no one has a right to make me feel like I'm not doing as well as they are in their relationship. I am the only person whose opinion matters. I am not inferior to other people because I am over weight. I am a good, caring person who deserves to be loved for the person I am and not what I can give people! I am me! I am a lover of people...I am a mother of 4 daughters who I treasure and want them to treasure themselves! I want them to have all the confidence in themselves that I never had. I want to pass on a love of healthy behaviors and not a love of regret. I want to share with you my journy of self love and devotion to God and my family. These girls that I have been given are truly special spirits who need a mother who loves herself. So here we go the weightloss journey begins.....
