My old blog name will stay in place this week, then I will remove it. There will be no posts made on that blog site anymore.

I'm looking forward to this new start. I have been wandering for a few months, going on and off the path. I don't feel as good as I did when I stayed on course and stayed away from certain foods--mostly sugar! I know a day will come when I can do "all things in moderation."

But for now, it is important to finish the course and get my last forty pounds off.

Well, this is my first post on my newly named blog, 40-Day Turn Around.

I am beginning my forty-day journey tomorrow. It will be baby-steps, each day building on the last. It's not a race; it's a lifestyle. I have forty pounds to lose to reach my goal, so it is kind of exciting to launch a new blog name and begin the last leg of my weight-loss plan all at the same time.

I hope sharing my struggles and successes will be an encouragement to those who are also trying to become.
