This evening, I was watching, "The Secret Lives of Women" on "WE" television. The topic was weight loss and how four women changed their lives through various weight loss methods. One young woman started a video blog to document her weight loss journey. It immediately reminded me of the Weight Loss Challenge that I started in the initial days of this blog. That was a while ago, and I lost a little weight, but after a month or two, the challenge was over, and I did not come out the "The Biggest Loser." My love affair with food was back on, and the challenge ended in defeat. Watching the show, I was truly inspired by women whose lives were not unlike my own. They were overweight and unhappy with their physical appearance. They all took matters into their own hands and came out victorious. I might also add, that each woman had an individual approach to her weight loss. Some decided to get gastric surgery, while others preferred cutting back with exercise. So, I'm thinking that maybe I will give it another try. Hey, you can never know success until you know failure. Well, when it comes to weight loss, failure has been my unwanted best buddy, and I am ready to shed that buddy for a new body. With the holidays rolling around the corner, it won't be easy, but I'm ready for the challenge.
