Koshie tries again

I'm a 50+ retired, married housewife whose main "fun" right now is leading an aerobics class twice a week. I'm not a tech-head, but I'm active, involved, and searching for more friends. I'm even better in person, as I'm pretty laid-back and accepting!

I've learned how to reach a weight loss goal -- I reached my goal weight by Low Carbing, a la Atkins. But I got severe lack of support at a time of great stress, did the stupid thing and regained the weight, and now am starting ...

I've learned how to reach a weight loss goal -- I reached my goal weight by Low Carbing, a la Atkins. But I got severe lack of support at a time of great stress, did the stupid thing and regained the weight, and now am starting all over. I'm smart, but I have learned you are always stronger when you have help. I KNOW I can do this; but I'd love to have a buddy.

My goal is to lose weight and keep it off for ME -- to look good, feel good, and be healthier for the rest of my life. I'm finally OVER (that was SO last decade!) the struggle to stay YOUNG and pushing myself far too hard. Now, I'm more relaxed -- I enjoy gardening, oil painting, stained-glass making, dancing, reading, and cuddling with DH and my dear friend Ginger (that green thing on my shoulder), in addition to my more vigorous pursuits of snow-skiing, step-aerobics, shooting hoops, and hula-hooping. Hey, ya gotta keep it fun!

Thanks for commenting to my blog. I am washing my hair a lot to lighten it and is still too dark. The only good things is that the gray is not showing yet. Maybe this is the real thing...I just to buy a lighter shade.

My hair stylist suggested lighten up my hair around my face but I cancelled the appointment because I hate all that chemicals on my hair. That when I decided to purchase a different type of hair color and do it myself.

Thanks for replying to my post about low carb intake. I think I want to skip the Induction Phase of Atkins because I have tried so many weight-loss diets that I have burnout. It's like I just want someone to tell me this is my magic number, and I will do it.

Thanks again the the detailed post. It was very informative and encouraging for me today.

Have a great day! emoticon
