I have just about hit rock bottom and have declared war on my lousy excuse of a life. I have taken steps to get my finances in order and now am tackling another major issue in my life: my weight.

I have just about hit rock bottom and have declared war on my lousy excuse of a life. I have taken steps to get my finances in order and now am tackling another major issue in my life: my weight. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. I'm only 35 years old and take 10 pills a day. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, depression, it is ridiculous. I am slowly but surely killing myself and that stops now!

(February 2011)
I am doing much better, I had a speed bump in Dec. but I lost all the weight I gained back and now I have lost even more. My numbers are better my cholesterol is down my A1C is great at 5.8 and my exercise has increased. I am even training for a Triathlon. Not a real one but a personal one. Either way I'm living healthier now than I have for most of my adult life. 11 pounds down, five miles on the bike, 25 laps in the pool, and building. We will see where I am in the future.

Thank you so much for the information about the calendar and stickers. I'm adding that calendar to my birthday wish list (coming up in August). We are on an extremely tight budget, so I know there is no money to buy it before then, but I'll bet I can drop enough hints to get it by then.

I live with PCOS, too. I'd love to talk about your journey sometime.

Almost everyone wore a wetsuit for my triathlon. I don't have one either, but I was able to rent one for the day for $15!

The reciepe you posted on my blog sounds so good. Jello, pudding and cool whip, just slightly different from mine but close enough to be easy to try out. Thanks for sharing it, ;)
