"Down" with the Weight
I'm Monica, single adoptive mommy to Mikey who is now 10 years old. Since he was 2 years old, I've been steadily putting on weight to the point that I feel that I can't keep up anymore! I want to be active and healthy for and with my son (and myself). It is time to get back on track.

I'm Monica, single adoptive mommy to Mikey who is now 10 years old. Since he was 2 years old, I've been steadily putting on weight to the point that I feel that I can't keep up anymore!

At the end of June 2009, I signed up for a year with Herbal Magic and it is my hope that I can drop 100 pounds in that year. My title "Down" with the Weight is a bit of a play on words as my son, Mikey, has Down syndrome. One of my major reasons for losing the weight is that I want to be healthy and active for him - to ensure that his life is all that he deserves.

My Goals:
My goal is to lose 104 pounds by the end of next school year (June 24, 2010). This gives me a year to do this. Lofty goal... but one I believe that I can achieve :). Short term goals are as follows: - August 1 - 18 pounds lost - GOAL MET :) - September 1 - 30 pounds lost - GOAL MET :) - October 1 - 38 pounds lost - GOAL MET :) - November 1 - 46 pounds lost - GOAL MET :) (47.5 pounds lost as of October 31) - December 1 - 54 pounds lost - January 1 - 62 pounds lost - February 1 - 70 pounds lost - March 1 - 78 pounds lost - April 1 - 86 pounds lost - May 1 - 94 pounds lost - June 1 - 100 pounds lost - June 24 - 104 pounds lost
My Program:
I joined Herbal Magic on June 24, 2009 and am committed to doing it for one year to see where it takes me. I am following their diet, tracking my food intake, drinking my 8 glasses of water a day, using the supplements that go with the program, planning to increase exercise to daily exercise and checking in with the consultant at Herbal Magic at lesat once a week.
Personal Information:
I live in Southern Alberta, Canada. I'm a special education teacher. I am also a single mother to a 10 year old who just happens to have an extra 21st chromosome (aka has Down syndrome). I'm currently in the process of trying to adopt a second child. In the middle of all this I'm looking to carve some time that will be used to take care of me. I know I can do it!
