There is always something devastating to hear or read about in our daily lives, however I'm here to say that I just got married a few days ago. I'm on cloud nine still from the event that showered my heart with a lot of love that day. I put my aches and pains away for one day to concentrate on this beautiful occasion.
There was death in the family a month ago that devastated us all in the hospital when my bro in…

I will repeat this step every 4 weeks, I will purchase an excercise program along the way.
This will record all the steps and determination that I will accomplish in one year. The main goal is to have lost 80 pounds and…
