    • About Me

      I'm a single Mother, full-time EMT, Paramedic Student, volunteer with my local fire department, FIRM Believer and 1+ year post-op GBS patient. I have many dreams and goals I'm working towards and have decided I've carried this weight with me long enough. I've tried for many years to get rid of it on my own with no success. Now it's time to take this bull by the horns and attack it head on. I have way too many things to do with my life and I just don't have time for this extra baggage.

      Lena, Just a little note of thanks for the friedship offer today and your kind words! LOL I'm just starting this journey so I look forward to your insight. I did check out your profile and need to remind you that while life is long, hard and unfair at time, the soul with faith in Him who makes all things possible finds completion at the end of time.
      Look forward to getting to know you Lena

      From ruthe1975 July 31

      I did not do so good on the 5 day... I did ok, but like last night, I had a low carb tortilla with my eggs, I was just so hungry this time... I really think my body may be done and that 140 - 145 is my flex weight as opposed to 135-140 know what I mean?

      From ruthe1975 July 30

      Hey girl, wanted to check in and see how it is going... one more day!!! 2morrow is my surgiversary and I weigh in at 1:15 MDT, send me good thoughts. I am shooting for 139 or lower on the Dr scale... 139 would be a 170 pound weight loss!!! The Dr goal weight for me was 187 so that is almost 50 below, hope he is ok with that LOL
