First Blog

 This is me. My name is Crystal, I'm a Christian,  I'm 27, a newlywed and as you can tell, overweight. They have another word for it, many really. I'm obese. I cannot remember a time in my life when I have not been overweight. It has always been a struggle, and it has always affected my self-worth.
 As with many people I have often tried losing weight in a variety of different ways. I have never been successful. I always lose motivation, my self-discipline is too limited, there are a number of reasons and excuses. The end result is the same, I'm still fat.
 What I have never really tried though is uncovering the reasons behind why I over eat and under exercise. I have also never tried asking God for help. So that is what I'm doing. A RADICAL makeover. And this will be my journal through this journey of discovery of God, and self, and ultimately healing.
 I'll share things here about myself and my life. But for now, this is my first entry.
