Wonder Woman is on the Case!

I love people, animals and intelligent conversation!

I have been fat all my life and have been extremely blessed. I don't have a problem in my head with being fat. My belief is that you can be fat and fit. However, the reality that I live is that one pays a price after a certain age because the excess weight takes it's toll on the human body.

So, here I am, 44 with knee issues. I am extremely obese but I don't hate myself or my body. I do hate the limitations ...

I have been fat all my life and have been extremely blessed. I don't have a problem in my head with being fat. My belief is that you can be fat and fit. However, the reality that I live is that one pays a price after a certain age because the excess weight takes it's toll on the human body.

So, here I am, 44 with knee issues. I am extremely obese but I don't hate myself or my body. I do hate the limitations I am facing now because my knees are shot and I have lymphedema in my left leg. (Lymphedema is a swelling of sorts. If you wish to know more, please feel free to message me and I would be happy to discuss it with you.)

In January of 2008 I made a New Year's resolution to make a change because I needed to regain my mobility. I lost 100 pounds on my own prior to my Lap Band Surgery on December 16, 2008. It was the jump start I needed to get my life back on track. It's still a struggle everyday because old habits die hard.

I actually found Spark through MyPoints and was so pleased to be introduced to such a multi-faceted, supportive community. Since my surgery I have lost an additional 75 pounds, and hope to continue to lose so that I can have knee surgery and get back out into the world.

All supportive friends are welcomed!

Hello Sophie:

I'm Mary I just started a few weeks ago as an associate team leader. I wrote to those on the board who had questions as well as to those who are pictured as new to the team and I get no response. Do the people on this team communicate etc as I don't see any activity.

"Beautiful Woman Award! Once you've been given this award, you have to paste it on the wall of 8 women who deserve it. If you receive more than 3, you know you're really beautiful! If you break the chain, nothing will happen, but it's always good to know someone thinks you're beautiful inside and out"
