As some of you may know I am partaking in a weight-loss program called Keto or as others call it low-carb. I decided to do this because it is my goal to lose a substantial amount of weight not just for my own benefit, but for the benefit of my family. Before I started this diet I was looking at my daughter one day and I realized that not only do I need to have a long life to see her grow up I need to have a higher quality of life for myself. Along with this I realized that it was also important to not pass on unhealthy eating habits to my daughter and that I need to set a good example for her. Looking at her little face and seeing my own young face looking back at me I realized that I needed to do for her what no one else did for me.
When I became a mother at first I thought it was going to be me teaching them, but the reality is we are both teaching each other. There are so many things in this life that I want to accomplish for myself and my family and I must be healthy enough to do them. I have found that I now have the strength and courage and will necessary to atlast complete this task. The task of gaining control over my physical being has been a goal that I have wished to accomplish for a very long time and now I know I shall, because of the inspiring presence of my daughter. It is my deepest desire to become a strong and healthy woman that my daughter and son can look up to and admire.
