Healthy Doesn't Always Mean Skinny

I am going to put myself out there.  In more ways than one.  I have decided to join a 31 day blogging challenge for the month of October.  Since I am very sporadic when it comes to my blog and actually  finishing posting the drafts I have written, posting everyday for a month will be a wonderful way to get the ball rolling (right?).

Also, I must blog about a specific topic.  I am going to be honest about my journey toward a healthier me.  Yes, I have weight to lose (and have since my 10-year old was born), but my goal is not a lower number on the scale. My goal is to breath easier, sleep better, move better and keep up with my energetic boys.

I will talk about past successes and failures, the short cuts I dream of but would never try, and food issues along the way.  I will keep a running list of my posts here so that you can start here and find new posts easier than scrolling through all of them each day.
