A New Year-A New Life
I have been on Sparkpeople on and off since August, 2012-mostly on, but the last month I haven't been on at all! I found myself VERY busy studying for finals in college. Yep, I went back to college & I just finished up my 1st semester. I got 3 "A"s and 1 "B"! At 51 years old, I realize how much of life I am missing out on by being obese. I used to tell myself "Oh, I carry the extra weight well" or "Well as long as my boobs stick out more than my belly it's ok". As you can see by my pix, I ...
I have been on Sparkpeople on and off since August, 2012-mostly on, but the last month I haven't been on at all! I found myself VERY busy studying for finals in college. Yep, I went back to college & I just finished up my 1st semester. I got 3 "A"s and 1 "B"! At 51 years old, I realize how much of life I am missing out on by being obese. I used to tell myself "Oh, I carry the extra weight well" or "Well as long as my boobs stick out more than my belly it's ok". As you can see by my pix, I don't carry it well and my belly is very big. What you CAN'T see is that I am depressed alot of the time, my joints and muscles ache, and I lack self confidence. I even refuse to buy myself new clothes believing that I don't "deserve" them! I need everyone's encouragement and prayers to get this journey going again, so please keep in touch!

Fitness Minutes: 65
My Goals:
To lose weight the healthy, lasting way. I want to feel good about myself again & have more self confidence in all areas of my life
My Program:
I am going to take baby steps so that I don't get overwhelmed by how much weight I have to lose. Instead of saying I have 200 lbs to lose, I want to get to size 26/28 for my first goal!!
Personal Information:
I live in Springfield MO. I am 51 years and have 3 grown daughters and a passel full of grandkids. I do suffer from depression & am bipolar. However I do try to be upbeat & cheerful-keeping a good attitude! I am currently a student at OTC. I love to read, dance, dream, and do paperwork!
Other Information:
I love to read inspirational/motivational quotes (not just about weight loss).
"Every man dies but not every man truly lives."
