I joined SP just a few weeks ago because I needed to lose some weight. What I found was a community. A community which aims to support my weight-loss goals, but one that does so much more. They are also here to support my fight against depression, my issues with self-esteem, and my desire to live well.

I finally lost my first 10 lbs. It took 7 months, but things are finally getting better. I'm not dieting exactly, just trying to change the way I live and think ...

My Goals:
All I really want is to love myself again. Every goal I have is to reach that ultimate goal.
1) Find help for my depression (completed)
2) Resolve my health issues, specifically my hyperthyroidism and ADD, both diagnosed and currently untreated (in progress)
3) Begin a life-style change (in progress)
My Program:
The issues to be dealt with first and foremost are my mental and physical health. Currently that is all I'm focused on. Once I get back on track with those two (not 'cured' but just on track) I'll start worrying about my life style and weight. It's important not to do too much at once or else I'll give up on everything!
Personal Information:
My username comes from the 2 places I believe have formed me into the person I currently am.
Jayhawk because I'm a recent graduate student from the University of Kansas (M.A. in progress, all that's left is the thesis, but man what a mountain) Rock Chalk!
Peach because Georgia is always on my mind. Of course, it helps that I've recently ridden the "midnight train to Georgia" and it feels wonderful to be home. Say what you will - this state was/is/always will be here for me to come and go as I need.
Other Information:
I'm a reader. I love to read. I hate exercise, but plan to work on that. My ADD causes me to be overly honest with my feelings, but in my mind that's one of the best things about it - at least I don't have to hide who I am.
